"Its social network"? Ewwww...

    I don’t think it’s too much for the company that makes mastodon to claim mastodon is “it’s decentralised social network”. The way I read it they don’t claim ownership, they claim to be the author.

    Mastodon didn't invent ActivityPub or the Fediverse by a long shot. So calling it their social network makes me throw up a little in my mouth...

    No, they invented mastodon. Which is the thing they’re adjusting.

    They didn’t invent HTTP either, which they’re not claiming ownership of by using it in mastodon.

    Mastodon is a specific software operating within the Fediverse social network, nothing it has done has made it "its own thing". But I'll stop arguing as it's clearly pointless.
