Quick Setup (< 1 hour)

You can use Mastodon to create and share posts across a network of independent servers that communicate with each other. You can follow people from different servers, share media content, customize your timeline without algorithms, and join communities with their own rules. The platform gives you control over your data and timeline while connecting to a larger federated social network called the fediverse.
