- Mastodon!
- Has some superficial similarities to Twitter, the structure of it and how it’s organized is closer to something like e-mail, the telephone system, and/or Matrix
- ActivityPub is a protocol
- It is an application that one deploys. There are instances of Mastodon rather than a monolithic single instance
- Mastodon is to ActivityPub as GMail is to email, except that Mastodon is open-source and you can host your own instance if you’d like
