So help me understand; what sets this apart from other services like Twitter? Lack of tracking?

It isn't just about tracking though -- Although that is one big aspect of why we built this. But also transparency and openness. There are no "censorship" mechanisms here, nor any social behaviour mutating algorithms at play either.
Probably the most important of all though, is Yarn.social is completely open source, distributed and decentralised.

@pc yarn is heaps better than Twitter!! Twitter is so bad even Jack Dorsey quit!! 🤣🤣🤣
@pc it is decentralised. You can run your own, with relatively little resources, allowing you to fully control it.
