> [...] until the day you cross a line that you didn’t know existed, [...] And then your account gets nuked and you can’t migrate your posts. Exactly. This is the critical flaw in Mastodon's design. It does not solve the single biggest flaw in Twitter (or any other typical platform) design, where the platform operator owns the network, and not the author/user. This is why I won't bother investing my own personal time and effort in joining anyone else's server, given how the current design is implemented. It's sad that BitTorrent has now existed for 21 years, and still no one has built a social media content distribution network on top of it. I would have done it but I don't have the motivation to do it alone, as it would tilt control away from the platform operators who require that control in order to monetize the platform to make it worth the investment. :sigh:
