I guarantee you the Pope will never be on Mastodon
Doubt that. Vatican uses Linux, if it gets popular enough they’re for sure going to have their own Mastodon instance. When you’re a big org like them, control matters more than dollar amounts. A recruiting and comms tool that they own end-to-end, except for the protocol (that they can block or mod anytime)? They’d love it. Having a Vatican.va Mastodon handle if you work for them would probably carry cachet with Catholics.
