it is the year 2022. the #Fediverse as we know it has been crushed on the anvil of the Toot! Crisis, and in our moment of weakness, the Corporations took control. the Fediverse has been divided into the following bitterly opposed factions:

• Amazon Elastic Mastodon Service
• Google Cloud Mastodon
• Microsoft Azure Mastodon
• Microsoft Xbox Live Mastodon
• Microsoft Visual Mastodon
• Microsoft Visual Mastodon Code (actually Pleroma)
• Microsoft Office Mastodon 365 (actually SharePoint)
• Microsoft Office Mastodon 365 Enterprise (actually SharePoint, SOX- and HIPAA-certified)
• Apple iMessage (can be used to talk about the Fediverse, but not to it, and only with other Apple users)

war between them is unceasing. features are added and removed with every passing day. DMs and audio posts still do not work properly.
