Korzystałem z pięciu klientów Mastodona. Mój obecny zaczyna mnie strasznie denerwować. Co z tego, że wszystkie ładnie wyglądają, skoro większość ma tyle bugów, że chyba kupię jakiś sprej na owady, a reszta nie ma połowy funkcji?
Naprawdę nie ma żadnego dobrego darmowego klienta na iOS?
A jeśli nie ma - to jak zachęcić Facebookowiczów i Twittowiczów do przejścia na Mastodona?
If you're going to use Mastodon via the web, I definitely suggest using the web client, @elk. It is such a great client, beautiful UI, and easy to use.
#FediQuestion
Is there a #mastodonclient , preferably browser-based, so that, when I view a thread of replies, I can easily see which people I am already following and follow those I am not, WITHOUT having to leave the thread to load every commenter's full profile?
Currently, I go down a thread, click on each username, check if I already follow them, and if so, go back to the thread and refind my place. It's slow. Or I can ctrl+click each name to open in new tabs, which gets me rate-limited.
Mastodon clients in the Apple ecosystem can sync timeline read position using iCloud.
That’s nice because you can always continue reading your timeline from where you left of, even if you switch from phone to computer etc.
Would it be technically possible to instead have a timeline read position as a variable connected to your account in the server that clients can read and write to? 🤔
That way it wouldn’t matter which client or OS you are using, you could still have a synced timeline experience.
I added profile/account button to bottom toolbar in #Pipilo. But I'm not sure what should happen when you tap it.
Would you prefer to open your profile or see account switcher? Most apps I've seen open profile but I personally more often switch accounts.
I'll probably open account switcher and redesign it a bit to show that tapping on active account would open its profile. But perhaps there is better way?
Working a bit on improvements to parent/replies expansion logic in #Pipilo. "Replying to …" and expand replies buttons now are unified and expand both all replies and ancestors.
A lot of complicated logic as it has to work correctly with my post grouping logic. Luckily having good unit test coverage helps here 🙂
Still have to figure out how to handle scrolling behavior so users won't randomly jump to first post.
