   Mastodon is decentralised.

   I have 45,465 followers on my single-person instance.

   Of those, 13,180 are on mastodon.social.

   So roughly 30% of my followers are on mastodon.social.

   Also, I follow 11,392 people.

   Of those, 1,864 are on mastodon.social.

   If mastodon.social blocks my instance, I lose 30% of my followers and I’m forced to stop following 1,864 people.

   Thought for the day: Truth Social is based on a fork of an old version of Mastodon. It almost certainly doesn't scale up any better than, say, mastodon.social.

   So it's probably 20,000 fanatical Trump worshippers and a million mostly-inactive bot accounts that occasionally toot crypto spams.

   So Truth Social is basically a Nazi version of Ashley Madison.
