Elk

A nimble Mastodon web client

@elk It looks and feels fantastic, on the desktop and on mobile. The only thing that’s stopping me switching immediately is that the “post language” picker seems to default back to English (or maybe whatever interface language you have selected) after every toot, even in replies to my own toots. I mostly post in Welsh, and that’s my default language on my server preferences.
I usually use Metatext on iOS, which doesn’t even have a language tag picker afaik, but does pick up the default language setting, or inherits the language tag of any toot I reply to, so I only have to switch apps if I want to post in English.
(Early days though, obvs. Good luck with it!)
