LOL. Fuck twitter. If anyone reading this hasn't jumped ship yet, now's as good a time as any. Mastodon's mobile website makes for a great PWA, alternatively, Ice Cubes for iOS is a solid free third party mobile app. Now let's talk desktop. The normal site is pretty good. But if you're looking for something a little more robust mastodeck.com is a third party front end that's great for power users and multitasking.

Haven't heard of Mastodeck. Gonna have to check it out. But to add some android apps to your list Megalodon treated me well when I was using it and Moshidon looked good too. For those that don't need something as crazy as Mastodeck on desktop though, there's Mastodon's built-in advanced view as well. I was never a Twitter user, but Mastodon and Firefish have been very fun to check out.

ETA: Tested Mastodeck with Firefirsh since other Mastodon clients seem to handle it and it also works. Just don't be surprised when something goes wrong since it's unsupported.

Tusky kicks ass for Mastodon on Android.

Think I tried it when I was just starting with Mastodon. Can't remember if I didn't like it or something. Might try it again
