What is Mastodon?
One such micro messaging platform is in trend these days, its name is Mastodon. Let's know about this new platform ..
Mastodon is an open source social networking platform. It looks very similar to Twitter, but it has certain features that differentiate it from Twitter. Till now, there was no specific challenge for Twitter from any other platform, but it seems that now a strong option has come in the market. Although Mastodon has been working for three years, but its name in India is almost unknown. However, for the last one or two weeks it has suddenly come up in discussion and the reason for this is also very interesting.
Supreme Court lawyer Sanjay Hegde made a comment about the Nazis, due to which Twitter banned his account twice. Hegde retweeted a 1936 photo of Nazi Germany in which August Landmasser, a German citizen, refused to give a Nazi salute. This means that he resisted Hitler's decree. Although this tweet should have been welcomed, Twitter considered it a hate pi that violates its rules. Hegde opposed this and was supported by many others on Twitter. After this, Twitter revived his account but deleted that picture in it.
But this did not end here and Twitter once again banned his account. Then there was heavy opposition and Hegde announced that he was leaving Twitter and going to Mastodon. After this news came. Mastodon became very popular in India and thousands of people have become its members. Many people are also accusing the twitter of taking a stand of antipathy towards minorities, dalits, women etc. which has given impetus to this trend.
However, for a Hindi reader, there is Hindi support, so the answer is yes. You are free to send and send your tweets here like twitter. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mastodon has announced that it has revised its policies to suit India's social conditions, so that it does not have any religious, ethnic or sexual bias. Many people like famous musician Vishal Dadlani, social activist Kavita Kashnan have shifted to Mastodon.
How is different from Twitter:
The site does not function as a service hosted in a single, central location, but it allows you to create your own social network whose data you can save on your separate server node on its network. You can also control this data. What Twitter or other social networking sites do with your data is not here.
Private and transparent:
Some of the features of Mastodon are to be understood. One is that your data is kept in decentralized form instead of a central server, which is in your hands. Your data is private. This takes privacy to a different level. Except private, direct messages sent, your comments on Twitter are available for everyone to read. But you can customize your comments on Mastodon.
What is Mastodon?
Mastodon is also an open source social networking service which is also free like Twitter. While Twitter uses your messages and other data indirectly for its income, this platform does not. Well, this is not a two-copy of Twitter, but rather something different. Messages on this platform, developed by Eugen Rozko and his team, are called tweets, not tweets. The size of these messages can be 500 characters, which is currently 280 in Twitter. Their symbol is also different. The twitter symbol is a bird, while the mastodon symbol is an elephant with a mobile phone in its hand.
