    @ayo @elk tried elk but the package in the archlinux user repository simply, does not work if you wanna add an account to it
    seemed maybe fit to what i would want from a client otherwise, though

      @ayo @elk I used it a lot, I find the interface quite ergonomic but my biggest complain was the size of the emojis.

      They are way to small for my myopia and the web client of my instance can zoom them.

      So I stopped using it

        @ayo @elk It was my main client for quite a while, and I still love it, but now I mainly use @phanpy.

          @ayo @elk Just set up a self-hosted instance and I'm loving it so far! It'll probably be my primary client, at least on web (I'm happy with the official Mastodon app on mobile).

            @ayo @elk I've used it daily on my laptop since early 2023 (I use something else for mobile access.) I've not found another web app / interface that works as well for me.

              @ayo @elk
              My first instance had a subdomain that served it as an alternate interface, and I tried it a couple of times, but I had some issues with some of it's design choices and how my browser handled PWAs... pretty much forgot about it entirely tbh, especially since switching instance...

                @ayo @elk Ok I just figured out how to add the pwa. This is my go-to for now on!

                So happy 😃

                  @ayo @elk never heard about it, and visiting the site does not tell me what it even is.

                  So: no idea what it even is

                  I assume it's a fedi client, but that's completely based on your post

                  @skaverat check @elk, it's rather more informative than the site.

                  (I had never heard of it either, and have no intention of switching from Tusky and (for the occasional quote-toot) the "Official" Mastodon-app.

                    @ayo @elk The reason why I have never felt any reason at all to use Elk: my Mastodon server already has a web interface, so what's the point of the extra layer of complexity?

                    Now -- I'm not saying there's no benefit; I'm sure there is. But addressing this concern would be central to a pitch for Elk, no? I've heard Elk promoted before but never have heard this concern addressed.

                      @ayo @elk Using main.elk.zone for Quote support. An absolute must at this point.

                          @ayo @elk I've been working on building my own Mastodon-compatible server and I've found Elk to be pretty handy for testing locally.

                            @ayo @elk I love Elk, it’s my main Mastodon client on desktop and iOS (installed on Home Screen as a PWA). I use it daily. It’s so much easier on the eyes, more readable, than the default client, any of the iOS apps I’ve tried, or Phanpy.

                            Edit to add: I don’t mean to throw shade at the other clients, I am thrilled there is a rich ecosystem of Mastodon clients for people to choose what works best for them.

                                    @ayo @elk I used to, but switched to Phanpy when quote boosts weren't supported for a while :/

                                      @ayo @elk It's not clear why I would use Elk -- what features does it add over the standard web client?

                                        @ayo @elk Switching back and forth between phanpy.social and elk.zone. I have noticed that the newer versions of elk have subjectively improved to the point where I slightly prefer using elk over phanpy for some reason I have difficulty articulating.

                                          @ayo @elk I was considering using it as a desktop client, but then the "native" app got discontinued, so I stopped considering it.
