Ivory on my iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

[–] AirlockDoc@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Mastodon because it works.

[–] blueday@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Didn't even bother looking if alternatives existed, glad to see some listed here though. Will have to try them in the future.

[–] PuffyPanda@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Was gonna say the same thing, but glad alternatives exist. I’m not active enough of a user for the differences to matter.

Now, if only there were iPhone apps for Lemmy…

[–] fing3r@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Well, there is mlem, currently in testflight beta…

[–] PuffyPanda@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same. If only there were alternatives to lemmy…

[–] fing3r@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago

Try mlem, currently in testflight beta. Pretty basic still but way better than the webapp, if you ask me.

Ice Cubes. It's open source and free! Best one by far!

Coming from spring for twitter, I feel at home using Mona. Very well polished native experience

[–] grimer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mona has worked very well for me on all 3 of my devices, mac, phone, ipad.

[–] skullvalanche@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Mona is great on mobile!

I use https://elk.zone on desktop though.

I have been using Mammoth, since it was in TestFlight, but weirdly I feel like following the official release it has gotten progressively more buggy and unstable so I’ve been resorting to the Mastodon App more and more lately. But I can’t find a way to post GIFs in that, so I’m currently sort of jumping around between Mastodon’s App, Mammoth and Metatext for posting GIFs.

@SuburbanHaikuist @rebiots just the free Mastodon app.

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I use Mona both on iOS and Mac. Great for multiple accounts, I use it for my Mastodon and Akkoma accounts.

[–] simlay@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I've been using mastoot for a while now and like it okay. I wish threads/replys were rendered more similar to twitter but eh. It's a free app with a free website so I really can't complain.

[–] xohshoo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

metatext. Only other I've tried was Ivory, but I didn't get the hype

[–] voidzero@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ivory right now - love the look & feel of the app but it seems to be improving quite slowly. Glad to see this post to find some new apps to try.

[–] nightscout@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I have Mona, IceCubes, and Ivory installed on my iPhone. I primarily use Mona because it has the features I find useful (and I love creating themes). Ivory is nice for passive scrolling but is still missing a ton of features that I find necessary for using Reddit. IceCubes has a surprisingly nice UI, a couple of things even Mona doesn’t have, and is open source.

IMO, these three apps are the best for Mastodon on ios. I also want to support the developers.

[–] Cotillion189@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

How is Mona? I have barley find it on app store. Is it foss or?

Just made my way over to Mastodon recently so have been using the standard app for now, might try out some other apps down the line but I haven't come across anything I can't do yet

What do you think of radiant?

Mammoth is a solid free option. Ivory is the best experience I’ve had so for, though.

Woolly and Ivory
