VisitAT Protocol vs Mastodon
What both publish
| Fact | AT Protocol | Mastodon |
|---|---|---|
| Moderation | Moderation uses labels, with Osprey for event-stream decisions and analysis and Ozone for labeling and moderation decisions. | Each server sets and enforces its own rules locally, and users may choose a server or host their own. |
| Self-hosting | Operators can self-host components including a PDS, Relay, Tap, AppView, and Ozone; Relay hosting is bandwidth intensive and AppView hosting is resource intensive. | Users can run Mastodon on their own infrastructure, while the documentation notes that server operation involves technical requirements such as email delivery. |
