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 I tried paid clients like "Mast" etc

Somewhat ironic that what I personally think is the best iOS client, the aforementioned #Metatext is free

I did fire up an old Android phone, and the #Tusky app is also very good

@jeff_povey @BerLinguistin I was worried about Metatext since it had gone so long without an update, but it’s been updated in the last few days. I imagine all the press about Mastodon has gotten it some more attention from its dev, so that’s good. It’s the one I’m using the most.
