A non-Fediverse person wouldn’t know Mastodon, would they?

Usually I say it’s like a thousand different tiny Reddits that all subscribe to each other. No central owner, no central operator. If any one of them gets unruly, the others can just shun them.

THEN I sometimes say “do you remember Mastodon?” And half the time they are like “oh yeah! That Twitter alternative!” And I say yes like that but for Reddit.
