  Mastodon is a open source, self-hosted, social networking service. Mastodon
  uses the ActivityPub protocol for federation which allows users to communicate
  between independent Mastodon instances and other ActivityPub compatible
  services. Mastodon has microblogging features similar to Twitter, and is
  generally considered to be a part of the Fediverse.
