"We 1st discuss the current state of #platform #governance scholarship, followed by background on #Mastodon. We then explain #covenantalfederalist political theory, followed by an examination of Mastodon’s #covenant. Such an approach will clarify an alarming case in Mastodon’s history: the intrusion of the alt-right platform Gab into the Mastodon. We conclude with critiques of Mastodon’s covenantal approach and calls for further research."
