@iamabhinav A social media that doesn't replicate the toxic behaviour that we see on the big commercial ones is possible. 50% of what we need are technical tools (and Mastodon is very good at this), but the other 50% is a community that actively discuss, works and collaborate to mantain their instance a nice place.
That's why I will always suggest the creation of local and community-based instances.
(PS - here you can find a complete introduction to Mastodon with many tips, partially derived from some of the toots you boosted http://rame.altervista.org/mastostart )
