Mastodon cannot be censored in the same way, thus no long-term enshittification. If you’re going to switch away from Twitter, give Mastodon a try. It uses the same tech/protocol as Lemmy, Piefed, Loops, Pixelfed, m/kbin, etc.
I’ve never really been that interested in Twitter so I have kind of ignored Mastodon, is it just open source Twitter or is there any meaningful improvements?
Years too late, mate. Get onto Bluesky!
For anyone who cares, Bluesky is not meaningfully decentralized and can be easily censored.

The differences are mostly around consent. Eg. You cant quotetweet without the author setting a flag to allow it
Get in now before the enshittification.
