What kind of app do you mostly use to interact with Mastodon?

@rperezrosario

This time around I'm using the official web interface and official mobile app. They've come a long way.

@rperezrosario
Depends on where I am:
Mobile: @apps
Desktop: @elk

[makeitmythic@mastodon.social]

@rperezrosario official android app and website on my laptop

[utf_7@mastodon.social]

@rperezrosario webapp on the mobile browser.

unfortunately, the official app does not work when having no browser in the sandbox installed

[gnomon@mastodon.social]

@rperezrosario emacs heresy (mastodon.el)

[jwcph@helvede.net]

@rperezrosario Neither - I'm all in on @phanpy in a browser, including on my phone 😁

[mastodonmigration@mastodon.online]

@FrVaBe @rperezrosario

Wasn't actually sure what he meant either, but wanted to make the distinction.

Huge fan of the Mastodon browser interface on any browser anywhere. Find apps very frustrating.

@mcSlibinas @sgtpepere @rperezrosario
Apps on mobile allow you to set several accounts.
With a long press on (almost any) action button (reply, add bookmark, boost, follow ...) show a menu selector to do the action with one of another account.
That is useful. Should works with Moshidon, Tusky, Husky, Fedilab (may be with Mastodon too but I don't use it, I don't remember why)

And, apps on mobile use less RAM than web browsers.

@thermia @rperezrosario they have a PWA? I might have to start using that. I'd rather have PWAs than a million electron apps all running separate browser instances

[beandev@social.tchncs.de]

@rperezrosario
Most time mobile with fedilab. Then Mastodon WebUI (modified with a user style), and with Python (API access, to get some additional useful information).

[thzinc@hachyderm.io]

@rperezrosario just phanpy.social both on desktop and phone

[thermia@sk.girlthi.ng]

@justenoughducks@mastodon.online @rperezrosario@mastodon.social not sure about upstream mastodon, but the glitch-soc fork of mastodon does, and sharkey, the main instance software it uses does as well ^^

[doppelganger75@mastodon.world]

@rperezrosario Browser.

[gjoel@mstdn.dk]

@rperezrosario But I'm off from work currently. Usually I'll use phanpy.

[desinterets@mastodon.top]

@rperezrosario using a browser most times.

[greguti@pouet.chapril.org]

@rperezrosario Mobile app everyday, @phanpy and @trunksapp when browsing from my main computer.

On my smartphone I switch between the official app, @moshidon and Trunks.

[ggg@mas.to]

@rperezrosario
Moshidon
@moshidon

[scuttlebutt@farticle.cloud]

@rperezrosario IceShrimp front end web ui in a browser.

[borisschapira@framapiaf.org]

@beeoproblem @rperezrosario this!

[wktenbrook@twit.social]

@rperezrosario IceCubes native app on macOS and iPadOS 26.x. I rarely/never check my feed on iOS.
