Android app mostly, but also with a good side of web browser.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Emacs, obviously. (Well, that and an iOS app and a web browser…)
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

maybe you should also ask: popular server, unpopular server, extremist server, own server....
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

I use both Web browser and Android app :ablobcatknitsweats:

And only one choice is possible: a multi choice poll would be more efficient to get feedback because I'm pretty to not be the only one in this situation

in reply to nixCraft 🐧

I use handcrafted artisanal API calls written in cURL
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Both iOS app and Mac app (Ivory in both cases).

This poll could be modified to reflect the fact that many people consume Masto in many ways.

I use a Web Browser on my computer and an Android app when I'm using my phone.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

75% web, because i spend more time at my desk. 25% iOS for the rest
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

99% web browser for me, but I do rarely use an Android app.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

mastodon app on Android or web browser (Firefox) depending if I use it on my phone or the PC.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Mostly i use Tusky tbh, but I also use Tokodon, it's great!
KDE is great!

I use the mastodon UI of my instance on desktop, and @phanpy https://phanpy.social on mobile, installed as a PWA.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Tusky for Android, not only because it is easy to use, but also because I have an account on oulipo.social and the official Mastodon app doesn't play nice with it.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

I use a desktop app too (and it’s my primary way of interacting with Mastodon, minute for minute)
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

and my mastodon iOS app that I voted for crashed immediately as soon as I chose that option 😂

P.S.: mastodon widget still doesn’t work on iOS - no way to select a hashtag to subscribe to on the home screen 🤦🏻‍♂️

in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Fedilab on Android and Ferdium on Desktop.

Browser when I'm on PC, Tusky (Android app but not the official one) when I'm on the phone.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Since no single Masto app accesses all the features enabled by my admin I am forced to use both the app (iOS casual browsing) and web (accessing regular features) to enjoy everything on mastodon.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

all 3, but mostly web browser, followed by by iOS app followed by android app
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Needs to be multiple choice. It depends on which machine I am using.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Currently the app but I use the web version as well when I don't want to use my phone.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

Mostly iOS app (Mona), sometimes through the Web (I have scraper scripts and bookmarklets which are handy for some use cases) or a desktop app (also Mona).
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

A roughly even split between browser (both the native https://mstdn.ca/ interface and https://main.elk.zone/) and the Tusky app on Android.

If I'm later-tooting (ie, scheduling posts), I'll usually use toot on my Ubuntu laptop.

@stelephant
I'm using it only on my Android phone. First I tried the official App but that was a pretty disappointing experience. Then I started to use Fedilab. The best Mastodon-Client I can imagine. Especially because it's possible to report glitches to the Developer directly on Mastodon.

After using Tusky on Android, Elk on the web, and Metatext on iOS, I recently started using @phanpy, and I love it so much that I use it _everywhere_, including as a PWA installed on Android. And it's on Android that I use Mastodon the most.

It's @zonepane to be precise. I used to use its predecessor, TwitPane, as a Twitter client.
in reply to nixCraft 🐧

I was a (mobile) web browser all the way until I discovered #Fedilab. I've been a happy user of that app for at least six months now.
