What are Mastodon servers and how do they work?
Mastodon is a decentralized, open-source software-based social network that operates on user servers.
Unlike centralized social media platforms, such as Facebook or Twitter, Mastodon operates through independent servers made by different individuals, organizations, or communities.
You can choose which server (group/community) you want to join based on your preferences. Each server can have a different focus, community guidelines, user base and moderation style.

You can create your own Mastodon servers with unique names, rules, and appearances.
You can create accounts on any Mastodon server you prefer.
