Mastodon Description

Mastodon is the best way to keep up with what’s happening. Follow anyone across the fediverse and see it all in chronological order. No algorithms, ads, or clickbait in sight.

A POWERFUL PUBLISHING PLATFORM

You no longer have to try and appease an opaque algorithm that decides if your friends are going to see what you posted. If they follow you, they’ll see it.

If you publish it to the open web, it’s accessible on the open web. You can safely share links to Mastodon in the knowledge that anyone will be able to read them without logging in.

Between threads, polls, high quality images, videos, audio, and content warnings, Mastodon offers plenty of ways to express yourself in a way that suits you.

A POWERFUL READING PLATFORM

We don’t need to show you ads, so we don’t need to keep you in our app. Mastodon has the richest selection of 3rd party apps and integrations so you can choose the experience that fits you best.

Thanks to the chronological home feed, it’s easy to tell when you’ve caught up on all updates and can move on to something else.

No need to worry that a misclick will ruin your recommendations forever. We don’t guess what you want to see, we let you control it.

PROTOCOLS, NOT PLATFORMS

Mastodon is not like a traditional social media platform, but is built on a decentralized protocol. You can sign up on our official server, or choose a 3rd party to host your data and moderate your experience.

Thanks to the common protocol, no matter what you choose, you can communicate seamlessly with people on other Mastodon servers. But there’s more: With just one account, you can communicate with people from other fediverse platforms.

Not happy with your choice? You can always switch to a different Mastodon server while taking your followers with you. For advanced users, you can even host your data on your own infrastructure, since Mastodon is open-source.

NON-PROFIT IN NATURE

Mastodon is a registered non-profit in the US and Germany. We are not motivated by extracting monetary value from the platform, but by what’s best for the platform.

AS FEATURED IN: TIME, Forbes, Wired, The Guardian, CNN, The Verge, TechCrunch, Financial Times, Gizmodo, PCMAG.com, and more.

Comments about Mastodon Android Version

So far so good! Need to add the feature to allow notifications when specific accounts post. Allegedly available on web but needs to add to mobile. Love the chronological post order but you can easily miss a post from a favorite account. Also you don't see each posts up to date boosts and favorites before interacting with it. When I favorite a post, it then updates and shows more interaction than initially.
I love Mastodon, but lately this app has been extremely glitchy. Eg, right now I am unable to send any posts, the app will not update notifications, etc & just keeps buffering. The issue was taken care of very promptly by the instance administrator within minutes of finally getting a post through telling them about it. They genuinely care at Mastodon.
Decent app so far. I like that it uses the Material You colors! Seems like it's missing a few features that are available on the browser, like hashtag following. The Mastodon community is fairly global, so I would really love it if the translate language option was more easily accessible on posts instead of just a drop down option.
