Mastodon isn't perfect. But the fact a social network exists that is completely free to use has no venture capital investors has no shareholders to answer to has no growth targets with a web interface with zero tracking cookies and mobile apps with zero trackers at all with ten thousand server administrators who donate their time for user safety is - in my opinion - mindbogglingly cool, given the state of the world we live in. Not everything has to be shit. People make things better.
