If you had to use a simple, verb-centric sentence to describe Mastodon, what would it be?
For example, TikTok's tagline is "Share your best videos". Twitch's is "Watch your favourite streams". Mastodon's?
@Gargron "toot your heart out"
@Gargron
"Connect with others, on your terms"
@Gargron From my perspective, this is what mastodon is. a social medium to connect with like minded people, knowing that if there are toxic people, they can be fenced off from me, without giving up entirely.
It also helps that mastodon is so customizable and flexible.
Mastodon promotes a healthier (than the alternatives) interaction with social.
And it doesn't shove ads down your throat, or track your every move.
It's my way to connect with others, on my terms.
@Gargron "Here is a pic of my cat, also here is a pic of me as a catboy"
@Gargron 'Share your posts' is too obvious
@spla Obvious doesn't mean bad, but "posts" is too vague, every app has posts. "Share your thoughts", but is it a note taking app? "Share your thoughts with the world", closer to reality as a publishing platform.
@Gargron my first thinking was "Share your thoughts"
Baa 
@darckcrystale @gargron « Toot your thoughts »
"Share your thoughts freely!"
@Gargron toot your takes about oats
@Gargron "Finally enjoy social media again."
@Gargron Be gay do crime
I was thinking about it hours ago.
But my solution was not combatible with "verb-centric".
@Gargron something along the lines of "reclaim your feed" or "reclaim your media".
toot toot! 📢
@Gargron
"No Celebrities, No Nazis, No Jack, No Bullshit".
@Gargron "Look at all these cats!"
@Gargron Join the decentralized fediverse or something like that. I can't help compare it to twitter and theirs is "Share and discover everything that's happening right now" but I think mastodon should lean into the fact that it's still quite niche, but decentralized.
I agree with Stefan - the game-changing idea is that nobody owns it, nobody controls all of it. Otherwise it is just another garden-variety of micro-blogs.
"Mastodon: Out of Control"
Simple, short, attention catching, thought provoking, different from the rest.
Marketing gurus can spin this from masculine gorilla imagery (see pic 1) to heart-warming parenting emotions (pic 2). Less is more in marketing, imho ;-)
Empower the future social networks
Eugen, "toot your most amazing toots"
@Gargron Have your healthiest discussions
@Gargron "Express yourself "
@Gargron
Actually, I thought TikTok's tagline was "We Never Met A Toilet Seat We Didn't Lick".
@Gargron "Be tootful." as a pun on "thoughtful" but also encouraging tooting
@Gargron rooty tooty fresh n' fruity
@Gargron “Excuse our constant tooting!”
Talk with your friends, without corporations trying to turn you into a revenue stream.
Own your own social space. Own your own conversations.
(I may be influenced by discovering that Twitter is currently tending to hide any links to Patreon, which is kind of terrible for someone whose main gig is 'drawing whatever the Muses ask her to, with the generous support of her patrons'.)
@Gargron "Doctor Doom toots as he pleases"
@Gargron "whatcha doin?"
@Gargron big titty alf
@Gargron Mastodon: Sound the trumpet of your future.
Sounds a bit cheesy, but all I can really think of that sticks to the elephant theme. Trumpets, like the sounds of an elephant's trunk.
@Gargron Actually, that could be truncated (pun-intended) to "Trumpet the future".
@Gargron fix the emojos
@Gargron Join *your* community. Make *your* community.
Not quite verb-based: “an internet of social networks”
@Gargron
"Toot with the Best."
@Gargron "Socialize with your peers" or something?
@Gargron “Enjoy your community”
@Gargron "The social network that really is social"
@Gargron "Connect with your friends, disconnect from the kleptocracy"
I am sure there is a better term than kleptocracy, but there is the gist.
@Gargron non serious funny answer : "Toot toot!" :D
