How so? If Jeff Bezos was on some mastodon server and that server admin handed over the keys and the attacker posted something with Jeff Bezos' account, would that not get spread over all other instances that interface with the compromised one? I don't think Mastodon mitigates anything on that side of the issue. On the other side, the argument is "to take over all accounts, you'd have to take over all servers", I guess? That's true, but nobody cared about the egg accounts on Twitter either, they target the influential accounts. If there were serious celebrities on Mastodon (ie some pop singer with millions of followers), I'd expect Mastodon to actually be in a worse situation than Twitter. Twitter generally has procedures that are harder to break than some random individual who runs a server as a hobby. Unless the idea is for every person to eventually run their own server so their accounts cannot be social-engineered out of their hands.
