So many new people around here 😲
Welcome everyone!
I am #Tusky, an Android app for Mastodon! (I work with other server software like Pleroma and Pixelfed as well, but 🀫)
#introduction
You just need to install me from either F-Droid or Google Play, log in and you are ready to browse the fediverse and post whatever you like.
I'll try to make that experience as pleasant as possible and I am super customizable to fit all different kinds of needs. ☺️
Other apps often tell me I should track what my users are doing, but I honestly don't care?
If my users have problems, find a bug or want new features they can just message me here or on GitHub, and my development team will do their best to help them.
I am five years or 86 releases old and I speak 45 languages. Over 150 people have collaborated on my code. All of that code is of course open source!
@Tusky oh Tusky, I switched to iOS and I miss you very much. Fantastic work Conny!

@Tusky hey! Can't upload pictures, any bug?
@oatrapado on mastodon.social? That is most likely because the instance is under very heavy load right now. Does it work in the browser?
@Tusky i've rey yo log on the web but it didn't work πŸ™„
@Tusky don't think os a Matteru of server load, because i tried to upload several times inbetween yesterday and today different hours, that's why i'm asking.
@oatrapado can you try uploading the image, then waiting for like 30 seconds, and then posting it?
@Tusky it worked, thank you!
@oatrapado it is a bug we inadvertently introduced in Tusky 17, it will be fixed in 18. Sorry for the inconvenience
@Tusky don't worry, it's fine, i'm glad to help to improve the app 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁
@Tusky is there a good how to/welcome guide for first time tusky users posted somewhere you know of?
@deathkitten no πŸ™
@Tusky I appreciated that you replied anyway. Thank you! Everything seems pretty straight forward, but I like reading welcome/new user guides in case I miss something just poking through, you know?
@deathkitten It is a good idea, we should write one. We have compiled some FAQs though https://github.com/tuskyapp/faq

@Tusky Awesome! I'll give that a look over. Thank you.

@Tusky Telemetry is good for non-technical users and lazy People (like me). Developers can see potential issues without the user lifting a finger.

But perhaps Fediverse peeps are of a different breedβ€”not only more eager, but more able, to make valuable reports and suggestions. https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/qeqn3b/despite_having_just_58_sales_over_38_of_bug/

@Tusky Thank you for the great app! Is it possible to deactivate the "load more" function so that content is automatically reloaded? I find the function very annoying and would at least wish that the content would automatically load over the wifi load.
@n2m3e no there is currently no such possibility.
