According to the Washington Post, quite a few US democratic legislators opened accounts in Mastodon but I haven’t really seen the kind of reaction I’ve seen in Japanese-language Mastodon when a prominent progressive female politician opened an account in Mastodon. The issue in Japan is: will conservative trolls torment her in Mastodon just like in Twitter, and what would be the responsibility of the instance admin. What would happen, if AOC opened an account in Mastodon?
