FYI, this is rebranded Mastodon.
How to know: go to The about page (archived, you'll see the elephant :)
I think they shut down the server btw :)

Oh wow, that's wild! I've seen others post screenshots of the interface, it looks exactly like Mastodon.
It's honestly pretty cool, so long as he chooses to federate!

The fediverse cancels him before he even officially launched tho 😄 He also violated AGPLv3 but I think no one cares.

Hopefully they fix the GPL problems before it launches

Tbf, I don't think it's a GPL violation. GPL allows anyone to use and modify the software, and if you redistribute the software then you need to redistribute it with the source code. A website specifically like mastodon doesn't redistribute the source code, they run it on their servers.
