@BeAware @mjgardner You might be talking about two different things: Mastodon the Platform vs Mastodon the Company and Website
The problem is the latter two mostly dictate the shape of the former one: If Eugen the Benevolent Dictator wills something on the Mastodon platform, he can mostly get his way.
He's not as bad as other corporations (or other German dictators), but let not the relative non-badness fool you

@egg there's no difference between the platform and the website and company.
One controls the others. If Eugen wants to change the code of mastodon to limit what you see on your own instance, he can do that and very few people know how to detect that.
