Did you know you can install Fediverse servers' websites as apps on your phone? These "web apps" let you have the most fully-featured versions of Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed etc as apps on your home screen, including notifications, full screen interfaces etc.
It's very easy to install web apps on Android and iPhone/iPad, full instructions in this guide:

Most web apps have more features than app store apps, due to restrictions in app store rules.

p.s. If you're wondering why you don't hear more about web apps, it's because Apple and Google hate them. Web apps totally bypass Apple and Google app stores.
Apple and Google enjoy controlling and taxing apps, but they have no control over web apps and don't get any money from them.
Apple even tried to stop web apps completely, luckily they had to back off: https://open-web-advocacy.org/blog/apple-backs-off-killing-web-apps
Web apps are a way of getting apps directly from the people who make them, without big tech getting in the way.
