"Mastodon is less toxic because of healthier moderation infrastructure (decentralization) and better mod tools not because trolls don't know about it--they do. People joining #Mastodon to avoid toxicity on Twitter is understandable. People advertising #Mastodon on Twitter before the very trolls that you're sick of is giving an open invitation to them to come and respond to you there. Don't see a point.
