His grand vision remains to leave Mastodon users in control of the social network, making their own decisions about what content is allowed or what appears in their timelines.

I don't use Mastadon cause I don't care for micro-blogging, but nevertheless, I like this.

Meta has replaced third places, public square and community directories and then sells that access to other media.

It is a conflict of interest for the community directors themselves to profiting off things which harm the community.

To the best of my knowledge, Mastodon does not have that conflict of interest.
