- jeroenhd 4y agoTrump's twitter clone has disabled federation as far as I'm aware.
- DoItToMe81 4y agoIf I recall correctly, it was initially built on a relicensed version of Mastodon, with federation disabled. No idea what's going on with it now, or if it was even legal to do so with Mastodon's AGPL license.
- jeroenhd 4y agoI don't think it's even relicensed, they pretty much just stole the code as far as I'm aware. From what I've read (I can't even reach the service as a foreigner) it's not even built on a recent version of Mastodon.
