Now, having said that, Mastodon's history as interpreted, which is to say that the history of mastodon as understood by long term mastodonians as giving shape to mastdodon, explicitly argues that masdoton was designed from the ground up to be a safe haven from the kinds of nonsense found in "white tech bro" spaces, and on twitter.
