As many users seek alternatives to X, rival social network Mastodon says that its official app downloads are up 47% on iOS.
Mastodon founder Eugen Rochko says downloads on Android are also up 17%, while total monthly sign-ups rose approximately 27% to 90,000.
The open-source X rival functions much like its competitor, the site formerly known as Twitter, on the outside. However, unlike the centralized Twitter, Mastodon consists of thousands of different social networks, which are integrated into a web it calls the “fediverse.”
I never really used twitter for more than weather lol, so I’ll make a mastodon account, but I’ll be as active on it as BS. Just don’t get the appeal of the format. Probably why I’m so much more active here than anywhere else.
Saaame. I’m jut on Mastadon now to boost ti’s numbers and support the fediverse.
Yeah I don’t know why, I never really got twitter. But Mastodon was addictive for me. I always want to see what people are posting
