Rodent (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=social.rodent) is an Android client for Mastodon that adds a few twists that differentiate it from other apps. To highlight some:

  • Access instances without login in (if the instance allows it).
  • Multi-instance view: quick flick between instances.
  • Home summary, where new posts are condensed by author or tag.

This profile is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.

New app update: a few fixes and small improvements plus, finally, image descriptions, including text recognition!
I'll add automatic AI image captioning if this post gets enough traction.
(I'll probably add it anyways so don't feel obligated to boost 😆).

New update: the notifications screen now has a condensed design! Instead of one notification item for each individual favourite, boost, and reply, now you can see all of them in a succinct UI. Try it with your next popular post!

Been trying this out secretly for the past few weeks — a "catch-up" timeline page. Did whole bunch of iterations, where I myself is the guinea pig, but this time reaching a point where I just got to share it out in the public.

  • NOT final design, still very experimental, only on my local machine
  • Instead of algo timeline, this is focused on data-grid-like UI for configuring exactly what I want to see.
  • This honestly could be another full-fledged app/client by itself 🫠

Demo of Catch-up page where it shows the Home/Following timeline with configurable filters and sort options.

rodentapp,

@cheeaun nice, looks neat! @rodentapp implements something similar with the no-FOMO button. It seems to be a useful feature; some help from the server would come in handy.

App update based on your feedback:

Antoher Rodent app update: replies now embed their parent post so you can see the context without other interaction. Thoughts?
Thanks to all betatesters for your support!

rodentapp,

@expert Good idea, we'll make the parent post clickable.

rodentapp,

Good point. Not open source yet at this stage. We'll let you know once it's in F-Droid.

rodentapp,

@shoq, thanks for checking it out! We want to make the onboarding of unexperienced users as easy as possible. Any suggestion is extremely welcomed.

rodentapp,

@mho, thanks for checking it out! I guess the default home should be configurable (classic or summary) to adapt to different user behaviours.
What do you think about the multi-instance view? Is it any userful?

rodentapp,

@mho Have you tried the new version? Now the summary has better integration with the timeline. Let me know your thoughts!
