Mastodon is just an interface for the larger Fediverse network. It does not control the network any more than Microsoft Outlook controls the email network.

Similarly, email is a "nazi friendly" technology. Are you going to not use email because of that? It's not reasonable to base every choice in your life around whether a "nazi" could potentially make the same choice.

Is Windows already banning all nazi users?
