Here I have maybe 10% of my following from the bird app and it’s just as active so it seems like maybe the algorithm kinda sucked
In the interest of balance the default mastodon app is pretty ugly! What’s the best third party app to use?
@lolennui I like Toot! so far. It’s worth the small investment, IMO.
@lolennui Tusky on Android is decent.
@lolennui I use tusky on my phone.
@lolennui I'm using Tusky on Android. Pretty happy with it!
@lolennui Metatext is another good option for iPhone, nicer interface than default app (though missing some of the “explore” options weirdly)
@lolennui
Tusky. By a mile. Not perfect - the website is still best - but the app to use is Tusky.
@lolennui Toot and Metatext are good for iPhone. Not sure about Android. I'm using Mammoth, which is better than the other two, but it's in beta testing still which means lots of little bugs.
@lolennui One thing about Toot that may be relevant is it doesn't show you Boost and Favorite numbers, just the labels.
@lolennui tooot on Android has a few features I've been missing on other apps, like seeing followers of the account from another site
@lolennui I’ve tried a few but I would recommend Mastoot for iOS that is available on the App Store. I’m also trying Ivory and Mammoth but you need a beta invite for those

@lolennui i don't know the "best" but i know what other people tend to recommend

iOS: metatext, toot!
android: tusky, fedilab

@lolennui if you’re on iPhone and have fast fingers, wait for the next @ivory alpha to drop

@lolennui

Maybe try #andstatus on android ...

See http://andstatus.org/

AndStatus - an Open Source multiple accounts client for multiple social networks for Android

Fedilab

@tallship @lolennui why would you put a Calckey hashtag, Fedilab has yet to add Calckey support :/

@lolennui I like the web interface .. but I haven't tried all the apps. I didn't like Tusky
