Ratings and reviews

The best Mastodon client I have found for Android. I tried quite a few. This has the one main feature that I find to be an absolute requirement which is remembering my last seen position in my home page. A few others have this feature too, but then you add to that some of the other functionality and this one wins out for me.

Tried several apps for Mastadon/Fediverse and I like this most. Pachli was the only one giving notifications reliably. It's very customisable, has a modern layout and most important: it just works.

An excellent Mastodon app. I was a happy Tusky user but this is Tusky Improved. Same familiar interface but without the glitches.
