It’s pretty disappointing that Mozilla chose to go with Mastodon. There are already plenty of org-backed mastodon instances. It would have been nice for the supposed primary steward of the web and decentralization to really show the power of the fediverse and use a different implementation. Mozilla, and any other orgs starting up instances, could really help expand the fediverse, instead they’re helping to cement mastodon in it’s Gmail position.
