Credible neutrality is the difference between the high seas and Bob's waterpark.

Technology ups the stakes. We have Twitter for public debate, the App Store for software, YouTube, Wikipedia, & more--critical, global, billion-person infrastructure that's nonetheless in the "waterpark" category.

We're here to fix it.

Here's a good example of what happens when you don't have credible neutrality. Bob's waterpark, Bob's rules.

mastodon is the furthest thing from credibly neutral.

your name & audience are tied to your "home server", like philip@mastodon.social

the redditor running your home server can (and in fact, promises to) ban you for wrongspeak

“activistware” 🤣

But it can be pretty damn cool to claim you use mastodon/bsky in many circles
