Mastoot

It says it can’t download posts. I’m on mastodon.social and although I can see the local and federated timelines, I can’t see my timeline or any mentions, etc

使用開始から一週間と少々経過した時点でのレビューです。 必要な機能を一通り網羅しつつ、設定項目が絞られていて、余計な機能もなく、「Simple is the best」を地でゆくようなアプリです。 【よかった点】 ・基本はホームタイムラインだが、ローカルや連合のタイムラインも表示可能 ・もちろん通知機能はあり、それとは別にプライベートメッセージのタブもある ・投稿時の警告表示やメディアの閲覧表示設定も可能 ・投票フォームの投稿も可能 ・自分がお気に入りに設定したトゥートや「ブークマーク」（原文まま）の閲覧、フォローリクエストの確認も可能 ・複数アカウント対応 ・日本語対応 ・敢えて具体名は伏せるが、ユーザ数の多い某アプリのように、ユーザが閲覧するサーバと無関係なサーバに勝手に接続してデータを流出させるようなマネもしていない模様 【要改善点】 ・iOSの共有機能で、このアプリを宛先に設定することはできない（Mastodon公式アプリにあってこのアプリにない数少ない機能） ・たまに、大きなサイズの画像を添付して投稿しようとすると失敗する 全般的には非常に使いやすく、Mastodon初心者や、Mastodon公式アプリでは物足りない人、クライアントがこそこそとデータを収集することを許せない人にとってもお勧めです。 個人的には、要改善点にも書いたように、このアプリを共有先に指定できるようになればいいと思います。それならば★5です。

Works with federated timeline. Can add multiple accounts. Scrolling through posts is smooth and quick. No data collection or in app purchases. The only problem I have is when I comment on a post I’m not seeing it pop up until I go back to the post. Not a deal breaker considering its smooth functionality. Best app I’ve tried so far (even better than Metatext which seems to be on hiatus). Doubt there is a better app out there imo.

I love the app, but when I try to view users with the misskey.io net name their text shows up but the pictures don’t please fix that problem. When problem is resolved the you will get five stars.

So the creators of ivory seem to be riding their own coattails and not fixing bugs that are glaring while small developers aren’t charging and make amazing apps like Mastoot. There’s several others that are great as well but I’ve landed on this one as a favorite. Think twice before spending money ($50 per YEAR for MacOS and iOS separately for Ivory because the greed just never ends) and support small developers and donate as you can. I don’t want this to become another monopoly and it seems those at the top as per usual are fine pulling the ladder up behind them. Support small developers. Amazing app.

I try other clients out, but I always come back to Mastoot. Many of us find some comfort in the way Twitter looked, and this client really bridges that gap. If you are coming over from that nightmare of a site, this should be the app you jump into first. If I could make some recommendations, I would ask for a way to “quote tweet” toots via generating an image of the toot and the allowing text with the image embedded (Mammoth can do this, I think). Also, and I find this to be an oversight on the dev team’s part, but favoriting and boosting need to be at the bottom of every toot, not hiding behind an ellipses submenu. These kinds of feedback are crucial to the entire network, and boosting should be front and center. Even with those deficiencies, though, this is still a five star app. Stable. Nice looking. Simple. Great work.

I honestly have no issues with this. The UI is nice and looks like a native iOS app plus being able to change the icon and accent color is a good feature. Also it’s free

When trying to pick a Mastodon client, I have to admit this one first jumped out at me because of how cute the icon is. But the reviews sold me on it, and I'm really pleased with this client. It's very straightforward and intuitively organized. It's easy to find whatever I want. The only feature requests I have are a character counter so I can tell how close I am to the limit instead of just guessing; and a way to access the extra emojis that are available in the browser version. (This second one is less of a big deal because you can manually insert them if you know the name of the emoji.) Overall I'm really happy with Mastoot and hope it continues to just get better and better!

I enjoy this app a lot. The only feature requests I have: -The ability to read alt text (If this exists I cannot find it) -Notification badge (the red circle saying I have messages)

I’ve used 4 different Mastodon clients at this point, from the official Mastodon app, to Tootle, Mammoth, to Metatext and this is definitely the cleanest, easiest to use client so far. Very well lashed out, easy to customize and makes all of the best features of Mastodon readily available. I love the option in the explore section to go to my local timeline or the federated feed, something many clients make difficult to navigate. One thing I really need to see in the app is a hashtag button on the main keyboard when drafting a post. Having to navigate to my special characters menu when hashtagging is the only reason this review is at 4 stars instead of 5. I’ve submitted a feature request, so fingers crossed we’ll see this in an update soon.
