    walled garden

    (Edit, For example…) Facebook control all aspects: you can only do what they want. Mastodon can be hosted and modified by anyone, it’s freedom.

    A closed platform, walled garden, (…) is a software system wherein the carrier or service provider has control over applications, content, and/or media, and restricts convenient access to non-approved applicants or content. This is in contrast to an open platform, wherein consumers generally have unrestricted access to applications and content. - wikipedia
