New user, what's the best client to use on ? The PWAs don't seem too amazing (not able to move the sidebar to the right or collapse it??), currently testing out the app which seems pretty cool.

Also all!

@jerry @harpsichord my current favorite is @pachli . It's a fork of Tusky, but they fixed all the issues about Tusky that I didn't like, like remembering your scroll position in the timeline. :blobcatthumbsup:

Alright Third Party Mastodon app devs...

Challenges:

  1. Make an app with a feature for the post composer that's a "hashtag drawer" that lets you individually save hashtags WITH CamelCase for easy re-use.

  2. In the same app, add a feature to create timelines with "hashtag groups" similar to Sharkey's native "antenna" feature.

Icecubes has hashtag groups but it's limited to 4 hashtags which is fine. But the "recent hashtag" feature doesn't seem to save CamelCase.

Moshidon/Megalodon has the antenna timeline feature built into the UI of their app, but it only works for Misskey/Sharkey instances. I'm sure it can be worked into the app somehow to work for Mastodon. PLEASE.

PLEASE don't reply to this post unless you plan on removing the mentions of the devs so they don't get spammed. Thanks.

@BeAware If I understand correctly, No. 2 is natively built into Mastodon. I don't think there's any limit (or it's high enough that I haven't experienced it yet)

E. g. for Moshidon/Megalodon you can add more hashtags to a group by going to the timelines menu, tapping on a hashtag timeline, than show advanced.

@FineFindus 🤔 That's great. Thanks for the info about Moshidon/Megalodon. However, it's not built into mastodon I think. You can follow one at a time and then see them on your home feed natively on the web, However, seeing them in groups isn't a thing natively AFAIK.🤷‍♂️

Gonna be quite honest. I'm VERY annoyed right now that I bought a new tablet and I can't use Megalodon or Moshidon because they don't see my instance as a "mastodon instance" even though it most definitely is....😑😳

If anyone has any ideas if theres a way to fix this on my end, please let me know. Cause this is quite depressing...I bought this tablet so I'd have something bigger for Fedi, but there's nothing quite like Megalodon/Moshidon....🤦‍♂️

Edit: It was a "me" issue. I changed values in my instances settings I should not have changed and it caused this error. I have reverted the values to something normal and I was able to login.

    Did you customize your video size limit? It looks like it may be throwing an error.

    @BeAware the worst part is if I'm counting right I think it's only 1 digit too high. Max int size in js is 9007199254740991 😂

    Looks like the & apps on Android support .

    ...and some really janky Japanese Misskey apps do, too.

    @BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

    @RxBrad Yes! I do wish there was more apps for iOS. Currently there's SoraSNS as a native app and Phanpy as a PWA which you could use as well if you'd like. I'd bet some other Misskey apps work as well on iOS, but like SoraSNS, it's built for Misskey and the dev is japanese (I think).🤷‍♂️

    However, they are currently rewriting their "Mastodon API support" feature completely which should allow it to work with Mastodon apps.

    That's what I'll be waiting on before migrating this account over to the new instance. I WILL be there, just on a fresh account till I can use my preferred app.👍
