Mastodon

Choosing Mastodon

Pros

  • Most well-known name and interface within the Fediverse.
  • Mature code-base with well-tested and stable updates.

Cons

  • Slow to adopt new features found in other Fediverse software.
  • Requires a lot of resources.

Recommendation

Our recommendation is that you choose Mastodon when:

  • You're migrating your data from another Mastodon instance.
  • You're very familiar with the Mastodon web interface and/or apps.

Otherwise, you may wish to consider Soapbox or Misskey which offer you more features while using less resources.
