SIx different desktop Linux Mastodon clients? OK, let's see:
- Tokodon. This is currently broken on my machine, and from a quick search I see I am not alone.
- Tusky. For Android. Not for actual (for real) Linux. For Android.
- Hummingbird. I think I'm going to actually try this one out.
- The default web client with a bunch of browser extensions. Okay. Maybe they'll fix the web client. I'll try this.
- Toot! I tried it a while ago and it was kind of unusable IIRC. I'll give it another shot.
- Fedilab. Android. Not real Linux; Android. And IIRC that one didn't work for me on Android, either. Incredibly slow load times for home, federated, etc. feeds (like... 5-30 minutes; even slower than the default web client or elk.zone)Web clients with PWA. I'm not seeing any PWA options for infosec.exchange (and I like my instance, but maybe I need to look closer.Right now it looks like... Hummingbird and maybe Toot!
Noting that elk.zone isn't listed. It's my daily driver though after a little while (as hinted above) load times become ridiculous (1 minute to indefinite/frozen). The default web client is the same. I'll try extensions and searching more to see if PWA is an option.
