Unless you're running it on your own domain, you don't own your mastodon identity, the server admin does. Sure it's better than the Twitter monolith, but getting a mastodon account "somewhere" doesn't solve the underlying #indieweb problem.

Sure, but I just don't think a blanket "join a mastodon somewhere" statement is really beneficial overall.

Nope, email *domain* not email server. My email address is @parecki.com but it's gmail behind it. That means I can swap out gmail for running my own server later and nobody who emails me will ever notice. That's the difference.
