How to use Mastodon – Twitter Alternatives

Mastodon's iOS app has a Twitter-like user interface. You can log into any community, search for posts, receive notifications of new posts, send them to other members of the community and experience the decentralized social platform on your Android device.

For those who don't know, Mastodon is an open source social platform that provides a Twitter-like experience while being decentralized. The platform has an estimated user base of 4.4 million and allows users to join communities to share their views and opinions and connect with others in different communities.

The platform uses the open source ActivityPub platform, which has also been used by various other social media platforms such as PixelFed, an Instagram alternative. It also ensures user safety with anti-abuse features and allows the 500 character limit, which is more than what Twitter has.
