Been following this critique with a lot of interest & have a hot take.
Mastodon is unbearably white only if you're unbearably American. It's refreshingly not yet Americanized for many from the Global South with American Discourse™️ all over our TL.

@SevenDeviled I agree with you. Mastodon feels way less American than the bird app and that’s hugely refreshing! One thing that I didn’t like about the bird app is that it centres around American topics and politics that are not directly relevant to me. Mastodon is different as there’s no algorithm amplifying these irrelevant (to me) topics.
