Ratings and reviews

Fedilab works much better than the free clients I have tried and has the best "pick up where you left off" features of any social media app I have used. Feature request: give some form of feedback when "working" to "Fetch more messages". This can take quite a while given the nature of the Fediverse and there's no way of knowing that it's still loading. Thanks!

I love how I can access all my Mastodon accounts in one place. The only thing on my wish list is that all of them could be displayed in one feed with something saying what account's feed it is associated with. Overall a great, easy-to-use app, and it's easier to use than the Mastodon app, especially if you want to follow hashtags.

Great new update guys. Not sure when that happened. I've been having an issue with sending reactions through on fedilab. If I press "😆" and there's already 1+ "😆," for example, then it simply highlights the bubble. If I use the drop-down menu to select it, it will remove the bubble that shows (😆 1) leaving nothing there. EDIT: 11/03/24 Still a problem. Thanks for nothing. Going back to Husky.
