As Twitter ditches its iconic branding in favor of owner Elon Musk’s favorite letter “X,” its open source competitor Mastodon is once again seeing usage numbers soar.

Anyone recommend a good iPhone app for Mastodon?

Gonna go against the grain here and just recommend the default Mastadon app. It’s simple and gets the job done with no Bells and whistles. Not sure there’s much missing

Yeah I’m also on the default and not sure what other apps have going for them that make them better

Ivory is my favorite as long as you don’t mind supporting the developers. But a close second place for me is Ice Cubes.

I second Ice Cubes. I would recommend Mammoth as well, but feed loading can be super slow.

The official app loads super fast, but way too many limitations IMHO.

I second this, super stable, fresh design, lots of features. I didn’t even need to try a different app it fit everything I wanted

I use Tusker and it’s been great so far. More features than the official app, and it’s pretty stable too.
