Beware of these fake Mastodon scam messages. They ask for your credit card information under threat of suspending your account. It's fake. I reported them, and you should too. Watch out for this account and other similar accounts that ask for your personal information.

The #MastodonOfficial #app has been disappearing my posts the second I hit publish. Anyone else experiencing this? It’s getting infuriating. It was happening only rarely, but now it’s roughly 50% of what I try to post. I’ve been using #IceCubes for Mastodon as well and sometimes it won’t post, but at least the material stays put so I can try again.

I just spent 20 minutes on an image AltText caption and composition for a photography post and it disappeared. I miss draft folder functionality.

#Metatext scheint mir nach wie vor die einzige App zu sein, die die Timeline nach einigen Stunden Abwesenheit korrekt und vollständig nachlädt. Ist das bei euch auch so?

#Mammoth: scheint nur die n letzten Toots nachzuladen, es bleibt ein Gap (kein "load missing toots" verfügbar).
#MastodonOfficial: immerhin "load missing toots", fügt die dann aber unterhalb(!) ein, nicht oberhalb. Timeline-Position dadurch komplett verrutscht.
#Mastoot: lädt anscheinend alles, aber springt direkt to the top.
🤷🏼‍♂️

@TheBigBlueWave @DeanObeidallah why do we need a mastondon lookalike when we have #MastodonOfficial that works already??

@mike I posted a few toots on this about a week ago. Here's a compilation:

I've been trialling three different apps for iOS - #Mastodon Official, #Tootle and #Tooot.

I like the customisation options of #Tootle - hashtag lists on the nav bar, colour choices etc. But the #Tootle app does not have an option for adding #AltText to images and has an NSFW option.

#MastodonOfficial loads the quickest and does have the #AltText option but no CW or sensitivity option. But doesn't let you know you've got #Notifications.

#Tooot has the #AltText option and can also be marked as #Sensitive but curated lists have to be set up on the web or other apps.

The web browser allows for #ALT-TEXT and media can be marked as sensitive.

Here is a visual comparison of the three apps:

I should note I am highly visual in cognitive processing so rate apps this way.

Now you know!
