You find the switch to Mastodon quite hard / you don’t like the app / you find the app slow, counterintuitive, and unaesthetic?

LIFE CHANGER: You don’t have to use Mastodon on the Mastodon app! 🤯

I switched to Metatext (available for iPhone, not sure for Android) and this makes the whole experience *so* much more enjoyable 😍 It takes to 2 seconds to download and reconnect to your account via your instance/server!

@BerLinguistin Metatext was my intro to 3rd party clients and now I have an addiction/problem with trying the ALL.

@amnesiacrobat What do you mean by “trying the ALL”? #Newbie here 😊

@BerLinguistin @amnesiacrobat think it means trying *them* all 😉

@asjmcguire @amnesiacrobat Ooohhh yes, of course 😅 I thought the “all” was maybe a specific feature of the Fediverse 🙈

@BerLinguistin @asjmcguire yes it was a typo. Trying *them* all. My autocorrect gets overzealous the most with the/them and well/we’ll

@amnesiacrobat @BerLinguistin not as bad as mine. People becomes prior and literally the only time I ever prior is when explaining to people that autocorrect does that.

About becomes s*it for some reason that I can't begin to understand, given that when you actually want to swear, autocorrect doesn't want you to (duck for example).

@asjmcguire @BerLinguistin yes, I too have not given a duck many times and really the only time I use ducking intentionally, it corrects to the other one :/ but some of those others are definitely weird.
