Welcome to all the Twitter refugees! ๐
Mastodon and the Fediverse does NOT use NFTs or blockchain or cryptocurrencies. No one is on here trying to get rich, no one is promoting anything.
The Fediverse (which Mastodon is part of) is a federated computer network spread across thousands of independently owned and operated servers. The millions of people on the Fedi can interact with each other regardless of which server they signed up on, because the servers talk to each other through federation.
Federation is a proven and stable way to make a network, it's how telephones and email work for example. It's how social networks should be.
We aren't trying to break anything or compete with anyone. There are no shareholders or venture capitalists. Instead, we work together, donating time or money, and collaborate to make a better social network for its own sake.
Here are some hints and tips for new users:

in reply to Lien Rag • • •Twitter has started integrating NFTs into its software, which is why some people are now leaving Twitter.
The Fediverse is not doing this, that's all I was trying to say. Sorry, I should have been clearer!
