Added embedded account cards similar to the status cards (quote toots). Lets the user stay inside the #MastodonClient rather than opening a browser when linking to an account.

I made the decision to add Trending to the main Timelines view rather than burying it under Explore. I think it's a better flow having all the feeds under one roof.

One thing I would love for exploring News is being able to see the conversations taking place about an article. Not sure that this is possible with Mastodon API right now.

Quick demo video of quoted posts in my #MastodonClient
Found a pretty decent 3rd party emoji picker that should do the trick.

Mastodon users – do you browse the "Local" and "Federated" feeds often? Thinking about featuring them on the Home tab & renaming it to Timelines or Feeds.

Started designing the post / reply window. Will tackle the editor components left to right starting with the emoji picker.
Another sneak peek of my desktop Mastodon client. Inching closer to alpha stage every week. Spent some time recently improving the search, navigation overlays and scroll view.

I think the client looks better with centered page title and smaller chrome. Also toned down the sidebar selection so it's not so prominent. What do you all think?

I think having the ability to view followers inline is an important feature Mastodon clients should have. Client can resolve an address with your instance when a user action happens (e.g. click, follow) and determine if it's federated. Using well timed API responses from your instance that's readily available offline, you could enrich / filter the external data (are you following it already, is it blocked, is the instance able to be followed, etc.)

Started developing a desktop Mastodon client in my free time over the holidays. It's still very much a work in progress but I've focused on some key features so far:

â€ĸ Theme-able – user customizable theme inspired by #ArcBrowser
â€ĸ Navigation – back, forward, history and global search bar
â€ĸ Large card previews
â€ĸ Quote statuses – autodetects Mastodon status links and provides inline preview
â€ĸ External followers / following – view all of someones followers even if they aren't downloaded to your instance
â€ĸ Offline backup – will keep a full backup of your posts, following, bookmarks, etc. that could later be used if your instance suddenly goes offline
â€ĸ Follower suggestions (WIP) – provide Followgraph type functionality to suggest followers
â€ĸ Offline search (WIP) – provide autocomplete fuzzy search offline for account lookup, bookmarks, etc.
