That's just a stolen and license-violating Mastodon, not much building involved

I try and avoid any news about that person so I don't know much about Truth other than it exists, how is it violating any license?

Presumably because they are using modified AGPL licensed code without releasing their modifications.

Not sure the FSF can do anything, but the mastodon authors can.

The FSF could provide lawyers at most, but given their track record that might very well happen.
