Description
In this Intermix session, participants click & consider Mastodon's functionalities and discuss their opinions with the group, live. Mastodon's one of the most widely used applications in the Fediverse. Despite offering Mastodon of the same core functions as mainstream social media platforms, the actions of posting, following, replying, and sharing are structured differently.
The second Intermix session, focuses on Mastodon as a media object, and participants can expect to interact and critique the application live. Mastodon, has a unique user base; these users often focus on decentralization, federation, and accessible moderation. During this session, we will also consider why Mastodon may feel unfamiliar to users coming from corporate platforms.
Conversation is open-ended and welcomes a multitude of perspectives from all backgrounds!
