Welcome to all the Twitter refugees! 👋
Mastodon and the Fediverse does NOT use NFTs or blockchain or cryptocurrencies. No one is on here trying to get rich, no one is promoting anything.
The Fediverse (which Mastodon is part of) is a federated computer network spread across thousands of independently owned and operated servers. The millions of people on the Fedi can interact with each other regardless of which server they signed up on, because the servers talk to each other through federation.
Federation is a proven and stable way to make a network, it's how telephones and email work for example. It's how social networks should be.
We aren't trying to break anything or compete with anyone. There are no shareholders or venture capitalists. Instead, we work together, donating time or money, and collaborate to make a better social network for its own sake.
Here are some hints and tips for new users:
: How do you do fellow meatbags and cell clumps? I believe I speak for the entire Fediverse when I say we don't do NFTs or crypto here, so welcome to any Twitter refugees running from monkey pictures.
: Um, the fediverse does have crypto built in. It's called 10grans. : Just gonna pretend I didn't see that.
: Um, yikes, refugees? That's heckin insensitive. : Now this is a comment worth addressing! I, John Fediverse, self-appointed spokesman for the fediverse, hereby promise to Do Better™. : Good, also blocking those chuds up there that disagreed with you.This thread is everything wrong with this place

I personally can't wait for when this new communist regime rises and falls, so that we get to put these people up against the wall, like we did with Ceaușescu.
