Metatext

Отличный, минус-нет переводчика

Из всех клиентов самый удобный

Работает неплохо, выглядит приятно, но ери скроллинге заметны рывки. Нет плавности в анимации.

Федиверс – спасение для интернета и будущее для всех нас. Спасибо разрабам метатекста за отличный мастодон клиент.

Much better than Mastodon iOS app. No problem with “missing post” loading. It keeps me exactly on the spot of the timeline I was, so I can continue scrolling up. Otherwise fast, smooth, reliable. The only downside was the initial question about Mastodon instance URL. I didn’t know what to use. Then I successfully used the server name from my Mastodon ID and everything works flawlessly since then.

This app used to be the best; now it won’t even load images and gives an error message when attempting to post.

TL;DR—Metatext claims it’ll translate posts but if it can do so, it’s a very well-hidden feature. I used the Mast app since I joined a Mastodon instance about four years ago, but recently Mast stopped updating my timeline and it looks like that app has been abandoned. To replace Mast, I downloaded Metatext, and it’s worked well for me so far. However, one feature that Mast has is completely missing from Metatext: translation of posts. It’s not possible in Metatext, yet Mast had this feature from the beginning four years ago. And no, I don’t consider the “highlight text and then send it to Apple’s servers” method a valid translation mechanic nor a feature of the app.

Been using the app for about six months, and it’s my default go-to on the iphone. But the edit function doesn’t appear or seem to work. If they fix that, this would be a five star review.

The GitHub is archived so no more work has been done on the app since November 2022. Good app but I wouldn’t recommend installing anymore.

It works reliably, doesn't steal any data (unlike some, watch out) and I appreciate that it's open source, but the project isn't being updated (GitHub/metabolist is asking for volunteers to take it over). I'm going to try the official Mastodon app and compare features.
