Mastodon vs Cancelled!

Mastodon is the best way to keep up with what’s happening. Follow anyone across the fediverse and see it all in chronological order. No algorithms, ads, or clickbait in sight. This is the official iOS app for Mastodon. In our app, you can: EXPLORE ■ Discover new writers, journalists, artists, photographers, scientists and more ■ See what’s happening in the world READ ■ Keep up with people you care about in a chronological feed with no interruptions ■ Follow hashtags to keep up with specific topics in real time CREATE ■ Post to your followers or the whole world, with polls, high quality images and videos ■ Participate in interesting conversations with other people CURATE ■ Create lists of people to never miss a post ■ Filter words or phrases to control what you do and don’t want to see AND MORE! ■ Login and switch between multiple accounts ■ No spoilers! You can put your posts behind content warnings A POWERFUL PUBLISHING PLATFORM You no longer have to try and appease an opaque algorithm that decides if your friends are going to see what you posted. If they follow you, they’ll see it. If you publish it to the open web, it’s accessible on the open web. You can safely share links to Mastodon in the knowledge that anyone will be able to read them without logging in. Between threads, polls, high quality images, videos, audio, and content warnings, Mastodon offers plenty of ways to express yourself in a way that suits you. A POWERFUL READING PLATFORM We don’t need to show you ads, so we don’t need to keep you in our app. Mastodon has the richest selection of 3rd party apps and integrations so you can choose the experience that fits you best. Thanks to the chronological home feed, it’s easy to tell when you’ve caught up on all updates and can move on to something else. No need to worry that a misclick will ruin your recommendations forever. We don’t guess what you want to see, we let you control it. PROTOCOLS, NOT PLATFORMS Mastodon is not like a traditional social media platform, but is built on a decentralized protocol. You can sign up on our official server, or choose a 3rd party to host your data and moderate your experience. Thanks to the common protocol, no matter what you choose, you can communicate seamlessly with people on other Mastodon servers. But there’s more: With just one account, you can communicate with people from other fediverse platforms. Not happy with your choice? You can always switch to a different Mastodon server while taking your followers with you. For advanced users, you can even host your data on your own infrastructure, since Mastodon is open-source. NON-PROFIT IN NATURE Mastodon is a registered non-profit in the US and Germany. We are not motivated by extracting monetary value from the platform, but by what’s best for the platform. AS FEATURED IN: TIME, Forbes, Wired, The Guardian, CNN, The Verge, TechCrunch, Financial Times, Gizmodo, PCMAG.com, and more.

Cancelled! is a friend-group opinion-poll app for debating public controversies, brand decisions, cultural moments, and trends — without the pile-on. It's not a verdict. It's not a leaderboard. It's a four-option spectrum that includes "rehabilitated" and "never cancelled" right alongside the brand-vocabulary options, so the conversation can actually move. THE LOOP — Pick a Wikipedia-backed subject and the specific event you want to debate. "Is X cancelled" isn't a debate; "the 2017 viral pineapple-on-pizza thing" is. — Cast your vote among four options: Still cancelled, Rehabilitated, Never cancelled, or Don't know enough. When you vote, choose which of your circles can see it. — See how each circle voted in My Circles. See the broader public sentiment in Global. See how the take has shifted in the last 30 days right on every debate. — Change your mind whenever. We track it. Your circles see when a take has evolved. CIRCLES Your votes live in circles — private groups of friends. — "All Circles" blends everyone you're connected to; tap any single circle to see just that group's takes. — Each vote is shared with the circles you choose. Default is all of them; narrow it to one circle, or keep a take in the Global tally only. — Make a circle and invite friends from the You tab. Anyone in a circle can invite their own friends; whoever created it manages membership; anyone can rename it. — Circles are private. If you're not a member or invited, you don't even know it exists. WHY THE FOUR OPTIONS We deliberately framed voting as a four-way opinion spectrum instead of a binary judgment. The product surfaces aggregate user sentiment — not a verdict. "Rehabilitated" and "Never cancelled" sit equally alongside the others. The framing matters: this app is built to model how takes evolve, not to issue them. SAFETY MECHANICS — Subjects come from Wikipedia. You can only propose debates about people, places, brands, or moments that already have a Wikipedia page. No private individuals. — Debates are anchored to a specific event with a neutral title — not vague person-level prompts. — No free-text accusations. The only writable text fields are the event title and a source URL, both moderator-reviewed. — Pre-publication moderation queue. Every user-submitted debate is reviewed before it appears publicly. — Report and block on every entry. Reports go to a human moderator. — Aggregate sentiment is public; individual votes are never publicly attributed. — Community Guidelines acknowledgment required on first launch. PRIVATE CIRCLE ATTRIBUTION, PUBLIC AGGREGATION Inside a private circle, members can see what each other individually voted — that's the social loop, and the same UX every social app has. You decide, per vote, which circles get that visibility. On the public Global feed, you only ever see aggregate counts and the plurality stance. No individual is ever publicly identified as voting any particular way. YOUR ACTIVITY — My submissions: see what's pending review, what was approved, and what got rejected — with the moderator's specific reason. — Activity inbox: friend requests, friend accepts, and recent debates from your circle, all in one chronological list. — Diagnostics: tap "Send diagnostics" from Profile to report any bug directly. PRIVACY Sign in with Apple. Identified by your iCloud user record ID — stable across reinstalls. Your votes are visible to you in Profile. Public surfaces never attribute individual stances. See our Privacy Policy in-app. Cancelled! is published by Logan Technology LLC. Intended for users 17 and older.
