The decentralized social network Mastodon gained immense popularity, especially after Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter. Twitter’s rival social media platform, whose number of users has increased significantly recently, is now making it much simpler to become a member.
Mastodon wants to reach more users
Many users who wanted to register with Mastodon especially complained that the registration process was complicated. It has been announced that this registration process, which is described as overwhelming compared to Twitter and Instagram, will now become much easier.
Now an easy option to create an account on mastodon.social has been added to the platform instead of choosing a server to register with Mastodon. Thus, users will be able to register on the platform more easily and benefit from the benefits of decentralized social media.
Eugene Rochko, the founder and CEO of Mastodon, stated that they will attract more people to the platform by allowing them to choose a server after the registration process. Rochko believes that with the increase in the number of users, they will be able to show more people the advantages of decentralized platforms.
The decentralized social media platform will not frighten potential users by leaving the complex server selection phase at the beginning of the registration process for later. Rochko explained that they want to bring people who do not know about decentralized structures to this platform.
Mastodon originated as free and open-source software that anyone could add code to and run on their own server infrastructure if they wished, or join servers in public networks managed by other people. The popularity of the platform has also increased, especially with the importance of its decentralization in the recent period.
After the acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk, many users sought a new social media platform. Mastodon, which stands out with its decentralization, is among the most important options in this regard.
