Each registry is a server and on each server you can put rules that you agree with. Search for a server to connect to and so each new server will be part of a community.
If you manage to own a server and your server meets these requirements, you can send an email to Hello@joinmastodon.org with the subject line “Server Submission” to be included on this website.
Because our goal is to give new users a smooth and reliable start on Mastodon’s decentralized social network rather than simply promoting individual servers, we are generally not interested in promoting new and untested servers, so shipping should not be your primary growth strategy. your community.
Speaking of features Twitter doesn’t have, here are some other perks of joining Mastodon!:
- edit button
- server custom emotes
- automatic post removal option
- extended notification bar
- 500 character limit
- advanced post-filter system
- content warnings & more!
Mastodon servers not app users
If you see a status or a user that is violating your website rules, you can report that user to your site’s moderators.
Clicking on the “report” option in the user dropdown or status dropdown will open the report modal. Here, you can (and should) add a note as to why you’re reporting that Mastodon App account. You can attach certain problem statuses to get additional context on why you’re reporting the account, and whether their conduct violates the remote website’s rules, too. you can choose to forward the report to your site’s moderators.
If you block an entire server:
- You will not see posts from that server on public timelines
- You won’t see other people’s boosts from that server in your home feed
- You will not see notifications from that server.
- You will lose all the followers you have had on that server.
How does Mastodon App work and can it be a good alternative?
The news of the purchase of Twitter by Elon Musk has put Mastodon in the public spotlight as a social network. On the surface, Mastodon resembles Twitter: users of the account write posts (called “toots”), which can be replied to, liked and reposted, and can follow each other.
A new browse page, post editing, and new moderation features are just a few of the additions! The best way to get started with Mastodon is through our official iOS and Android apps, but many third-party apps are also available below.
Mastodon is open source and has an elegant and well-documented API that is available to everyone. You can create your own app, or use one of the many third party apps made by other developers.
