I think the author is a bit late to the game. There are like 20 different forks of Mastodon to address exactly that, which some developers have already migrated to. Additionally there are Misskey, Pleroma with their respective forks. Some of them are pretty active.
I don't think pleroma or misskey were ever mastodon forks. They're just better alternatives that do something approximately similar.
You're right. I implied that with the "additionally". I don't like Ruby on Rails and all the resource usage of Mastodon anyways. I'd like something more efficient and with less frameworks involved.
