How do you know you may be a little too invested in the Fediverse? Last night I had a dream I was enthusiastically recommending @phanpy to someone... πŸ˜†

Dreams aside, #Phanpy is truly the best and if you haven't tried out its Catch Up feature, you're missing out BIG TIME. Thank you @cheeaun for your brilliant work on it!

Phanpy

Minimalistic opinionated Mastodon web client

@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun Oh that is very neat, I was already using phanpy, but wasn't aware of that feature, thanks for pointing it out!
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun doesn't seem to work with gotosocial(
Edit: nvm, after clearing cache it started working

@amlor I been using Phanpy and Gotosocial for 18 months with no issues. What's not working for you?

@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun

@daj @_elena @phanpy @cheeaun it just didn't do anything when I tried to log in. Clearing browser cache helped

@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun

I'm using Phanpy on a daily basis since years... but what is this "catch up" feature? I think I'm missing something huge!

@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun Yup. I prefer Phanpy to the Mastodon interface. I didn't think to try it with GoToSocial!
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun Just tried this, blew me away, uninstalled the Mastodon app from my #FairPhone and added the page as an app to my home screen. It feels like the most human friendly social media app I've ever used!
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun the boost carousel is peak feature, every time I use another client I miss it
@_elena There's also a Phanpy version optimized for iOS https://github.com/matfantinel/iphanpy (no notification support, unfortunately) @phanpy @cheeaun
@sef @_elena @phanpy @cheeaun the issue with the iOS app, is as far as I can see, no option to set it to use native browser, so it’s an extra tap to get there. Hence, I have browser plugins like consent-o-matic and bookmarking I can’t access easily.

I switched to #Phanpy about a week ago after someone pointed out that you could view a user's actual posts with boosts filtered out. Definitely helpful in deciding whether or not to follow. I also love having boosts visibly separated out in my feed!

@_elena πŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈπŸ™‡β€β™‚οΈ glad to know it works in a dream too πŸ˜†
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun Thanks for the recommendation. I just switched!
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun You even have an iPhanpy on the European AltStore. πŸ–€
@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun I only wish there was a native android app! The PWA ends up reloading when I open it more often than not and I lose my place. Literally, my only complaint.
@_elena OK I may only be a minute in to scrolling my home feed on this, but this feels *good*

@_elena @phanpy @cheeaun

so, I am lost. Way too involved. I'm writing a whole instance software, similar to GtS:

Really love Phanpy, but sadly one thing pushed me back to the standard interface on desktop - emojis.

Phanpy's emoji picker only gives an instance's custom emojis, not standard ones.

Using Elena's post as an example, how did you post πŸ˜†? Is the mobile client different?

It may sound trivial, but over time it became annoying enough to stop me using Phanpy. πŸ˜”

A 2 year old unassigned request I found for this just lists impractical workarounds:
