あなたを売らないソーシャルネットワーキング

Many of the things you can't do with Mastodon are the result of careful design.

Here is a blog on Mastodon. All the articles are useful, but check this one in particular. Here's why.

Cage the Mastodon

An overview of features for dealing with abuse and harassment

Mastodon is designed in this way, but on the other hand, the network that Mastodon is connected to is based on a protocol called ActivityPub, which allows it to transparently interact with many different products.

Each of these products was developed for a different purpose and has a different philosophy than Mastodon.

Pleroma and Misskey are particularly well-known social networks that are similar to Mastodon. There are also forks that are based on Mastodon but slightly different.

Mastodon has many forks, but let's introduce Hometown and Fedibird.

Hometown is a small community-oriented fork. This is probably the exact opposite of a commercial silo, which would surprise you.

Read this article by Darius Kazemi. It's a moving and wonderful work. https://runyourown.social/

Fedibird is a more full-featured implementation with features that Mastodon didn't include for various reasons. This should also alleviate some of the criticism of Mastodon.

In my opinion, the current Mastodon is carefully designed for humans and promises a comfortable life. It's the best living quarters.

However, there is still a lack of a system for state and administration, and a system for commercial activities. Administrative district, commercial district.

But if you bring Twitter as it is, it won't work. We should design better systems that fit decentralized networks.

Come on, who makes this happen?

Mastodonサーバの選び方について
==

Mastodonは分散SNSとして設計されており、うまく分散したときにその強みを発揮します。

これまで皆さんは、もっとも有名で、人気があり、人がたくさんいるサービスを選択するのが良い選択だと考えてきたと思います。

Mastodonではこれは必ずしもあてはまりません。むしろ、そういったサーバの利用は避けて、中規模のサーバ、あるいはより小規模なサーバや、自分だけのサーバを選択する方が良いケースがたくさんあります。

Mastodonのサーバは利用者が多いほど維持に多くの努力とお金がかかるにもかかわらず、お金が儲かる仕組みにはなっていないため、バランスが悪くなっていくためです。

大きくなりすぎて様々な弊害を生んでいるTwitterのような大規模サービスの問題を解決するために、それをより小さく分割し、小さく管理することが、Mastodonの出した答えなのです。

みなさん、mastodon.socialの動作が遅くてもがっかりしないでください。もっと快適に動作する、中規模のサーバに引っ越しすることで解決します！
