toot! https://github.com/ihabunek/toot

Use it all the time in the terminal. Plus its a great name.

Jerboa on android. Its excellent.

Fedilab for mastodon on the phone.

Peertube for android. The new app is pretty good, just wish it had logging in and looking at my subscriptions.

Phanpy for mastodon on my laptop. Great mastodon browser.

w3m / Links2 for everything else of course.

I got everything but the image support working without any real effort. Just pip install toot.

Nice thanks for the info!

I have mastodon and lemmy, and to a much lesser extent Bluesky.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ngl I don’t like bluesky I had trouble trying to delete my account

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh interesting, I deleted my first easily I think. I was going to leave it but ended up wanting it for a few things

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Well I ran into a rate limit then it just wouldn’t let me click delete afterwards, in the end I had to make a GDPR request to delete my account and data

Fair enough, any particular web UI or just the default ones?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Default lemmy UI, but I changed the default dark theme to the light theme, the dark theme looks weird to me.

I don't think my instance has alternative web UIs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

You should still be able to try something like Photon

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You could try lemmy web apps, basically an app ui for on the web, unless you use lemmy on a computer

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Just lemmy but I've been meaning to check out funkwhale.

Lemmy - Eternity (Android) Lemmy - Photon [phtn.app] (Windows) Mastodon - Moshidon (Android) Mastodon - mastodon, elk (Windows) Bluesky - Bluesky (Android/Windows)

Tusky, for Mastodon, and Sync for Lemmy. Last I checked the Sync developer appeared to be missing in action, so might need to switch to something else in the not too distant future.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I thought sync was a paid service?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ads if you're not paying, unless you're blocking them, ofc.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Fair play, seems alright

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Summit on Android, only.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Thunder for Lemmy on Android.

Tusky for Mastodon on Android.

I rarely use either Lemmy or Mastodon on desktop. If I do, it's just through the web client.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Tusky on Android.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

Voyager for Lemmy on Android (slightly better experience than Jerboa imho), and Tusky for Mastodon. Soletimes Fedilab because it handles multiple accounts and platforms (Pixelfed...)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Only Voyager, i would be interested in a decentralized bandcamp alternative

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Also Voyager.

Wish it had a 'forward' button for when you accidentally go back one step too far. RiF had that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

You could make the suggestion to the dev

Arctic for Lemmy. Also have Peertube app but there’s not much hosted there yet.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

May I ask what made you choose peertube

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ahh that makes sense, I’ve assume you’ve heard of invidious and pied and the other similar front ends

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I use Mastodon and Pixelfed

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

The Jerboa Lemmy client, and Mastodon's official client. I think they're both fine enough for my fediverse browsing needs.
