Wow!
Not the point of the article, but it is striking to see how mastodon is way better in terms of usability/aesthetic and general UX than Twitter or 'x'.
I've been mildly interested in mastodon for quite some time from a political perspective (remove large support of big companies where possible), but I didn't realize it was just sooo much better to use.
