Which apps did you try for Mastodon? Tusky is almost perfect in my opinion (though I never tried twitter so I couldnt compare it).
Yeah, I use Tusky as well and quite happy with it. I wonder if it might be worth looking at forking Slide Reddit app and adapting it for Lemmy. Presumably, bulk of the changes would just be around the API calls since Lemmy and Reddit both have very similar UX. Might be less work to take adapt an existing mature app than starting from scratch.
It could even be done by adding lemmy support to slide, similarly to how NewPipe supports peertube alongside Youtube.
Though by doing that we may lose lemmy having its own distinctive style.
If Slide devs are open to it, then it's probably a good option. It would still be possible to make other apps in the future, and Slide already has its own style that's not Reddit branded which is a plus.
Yeah I love fedilab, even if pixelfed and peertube aren't great I think its really cool that they are all integrated in to one experience instead of switching a bunch of apps all the time
I used fedilab before and started using tusky, both are very great, but for some reason Tusky feels might lighter.
Fedilab, which is really clunky and confusing to me, haven't tried tusky yet. As @[email protected] twidere is a really great twitter app.
