Hey new people, you don't have to use the official Mastodon app! There are lots of other options you can use such as third party apps etc. Most people who try these alternatives usually prefer them.

Mastodon doesn't impose any particular app on you. You're free to use your account in whatever way works best for you. Here is a guide to all your options:

If you want to compare apps, you can be logged in with the same account on many apps at once.

I've been surprised at how nice the web interface is, even on mobile. I haven't been in a rush to find a suitable app as a result.

I've tried many apps and always come back to the web version which is fantastic. It's great that everyone has so much choice though.

Personally I love @Tusky so much that I would use it even if it were a client for X (ok no, just kidding)

I'm currently trying out #Tuba on Linux and am enjoying it so far.

from what I understand, the official app is the only free one that’s made with a decent quality. Everything else is either shitty pet project with design from early 2000s or a paid/freemium app
Fedi.Tips
No, that's not the case. At least in my experience, most people who try third party apps prefer them to the official app and there are plenty of good free apps too.

Things like Tusky, Ice Cubes, Moshidon, Fedilab etc are excellent and have features missing from the official app.

Even for a web interface, I highly prefer Phanpy over the regular Mastodon site (I'm writing through it right now, it's the interface I always use)

apparently of those only Ice Cubes is present on iOS and it has "in-app purchases"

@pachli is good, and fixes my duplicated "load missing posts" problem i was having on the official app.

No seriously can anyone recommend a decent mastodon client for iOS with advanced features you mention and with no paywalls?

Or is it really a thing that "fediverse is not for those who agree to give their money to the evil corps like Apple"?

Literally every single app mentioned in this thread or the original article (except for Ice Cubes) are android apps.

Ice Cubes doesn't have a "paywall". The in app purchases are optional tips to the developer which are just tips, they're not tied to any features.

@Tusky on Android is sooo good!

Moble apps from @MonaApp and @ivory are great — and worth the annual subscription price because devs gotta eat!

I have been really loving phanpy.social. It even installs as a PWA. It's not a different server, just a different interface.
Fedi.Tips
Yup, a number of people have recommended it and I've listed it in the article above (in the web interfaces section).

I use Toot on my iPhone and my iPad and I’m happy with it.
