🔥 Consent-based quoting has arrived in Bonfire!
The latest Bonfire Social release implements Mastodon's FEP-044f, enabling you to:
✨ Use boundaries to define who can quote your post, who must request first, or who cannot request at all.
✨ Quote — or request consent to quote — someone else’s post.
✨ Give or withdraw consent at any time.
A first step toward making quoting work smoothly and respectfully across the fediverse.

Feeling a bit overwhelmed keeping up with your feeds?
Best-o-Masto is a new iOS app the brings you a concise timeline of 20 posts to view each hour based on most interactions.
You can also choose a “top 8” collection of accounts and see them in a separate timeline.
The feed is only updated every hour so no doom scrolling either.
TLDR Best-o-Masto is an alternative Mastodon client that does very little, but on purpose. When you open the app, it shows you the 20 most popular posts from accounts you follow in the last few hours. You can favorite those posts, boost them, or open them in a real Mastodon
