If mastodon isn't liberal enough (or right wing enough) the solution is to build something.
e.g I disagree with the way masto hides/lacks analytics. I need my feedback- hiding it doesn't it make social media less toxic for me. For a few dozen lines of python I should be able to fix this for me & publish to pypi.

I'm coming at this from a position of pragmatism. I'm a big fan of lost causes .e.g. vegetarianism-- 100s of years of trying to make a dent in social behavior and not a lot to show for it. It makes the idealist into a pragmatist. Lets see some compromised success, rather than perfect failure.
