Mastodon’s non-profit status in the U.S. will enable it to receive tax-deductible donations and other financial support. The organization has already received significant contributions from Jeff Atwood and Mozilla, allowing it to hire additional staff. Mastodon’s board of directors includes prominent individuals such as Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, human rights advocate Esra’a Al Shafei, and technology lawyer Amir Ghavi. Despite the challenges it faces in Germany, Mastodon remains committed to providing an alternative to centralized social media platforms and preserving the principles of openness and decentralization.
