Best Mastodon Travel Accounts to Follow Right Now (No More Twitter in 2023?)
Everyone is talking about Mastodon right now. If you haven’t heard yet, Mastodon is the new Twitter. Twitter users have been getting more and more upset lately, not only thanks to Elon Musk but because of their ad policy, the introduction of Twitter Blue, subscriptions, and more. It is hard to grow any account or find the content you want, without getting weird notifications from random content.
The “cool kids” are moving to Mastodon (passing over 1 million users recently). Look at the search trend on Google Trends

What is Mastodon?
Mastodon is a decentralized microblogging platform. It looks similar to Twitter, but the underlying technology and platform are far more complex. With Mastdoton, there is a “federated” network, which is a collection of thousands of social networks running on servers all around the world. All these social networks are linked by the common Mastodon technology on something known as the “Fediverse”.
To create a new account, you can sign up for a specific server, which is run by whoever set it up, usually volunteers that take donations. They’ll have their own rules and policies on, for example, who can join and how strictly the conversation will be moderated. You can even start your own server if you want to set the rules yourself.
You can read more about it here, here, and here. The best Mastodon server for Sweden is Mastodon.nu (and also the Nordic countries). You can support the project by donating or joining their Patreon.
It doesn’t matter where you create the account, you can follow accounts in any other server, as all of them are connected in the Fediverse.
