That is indeed the case. If you’re considering Mastodon try Wafrn. Its an open source social network that interacts with all Mastodon peeps like normal as well as bridging to and from Bluesky if you want. So you can interact with BSky and Fediverse accounts all from one place. Good shit.

Plus its one of the few social media platforms (even on the Fediverse) that has a STRICT no AI policy because fuck that shit.
