Mastodon CVE Report

Didn't expect the mastodon CVE report/account would kinda end up being about platform diversity on the fediverse (TLDR: only mastodon really had the problem, which was huge)

The point though is that not all platforms had the problem, which means platform diversity would have lessened the significance.
