Last November, I made a brief post to Facebook about Mastodon. Mastodon is an open-source and open social network, which is decentralized and all about user control instead of corporate control. I’ve blogged about Mastodon and the dangers of Facebook before, but rarely mentioned Mastodon on Facebook itself.

Today, I received this notice that Facebook had censored my post about Mastodon

    They have been shadowbanning links to other social media sites for a long time. (No one sees your post in their feed)

      Wow. I was not aware of this. I thought they always inform when they take blocking action.
