@jaydubs Yeah, they are pretty prolific with the code changes 🙂 I believe there are a lot of people helping out on that project. They do keep adding stuff fast. Which is one reason that I went with that repo for what I wanted — the fact that they add new features without me having to do the work 😛

@jaydubs Ah, thank you 😊 Then they must have been added recently because I don't see them in my version of the code, which is about a week old. So at least I wasn't maligning them 😛

@Djerbien @jaydubs @icecubesapp I shy away from making definitive statements since “best” is all subjective … what works for you might not work for me 🙂 Personally, I find #Tusker the best app for *me* since it has lots of subtle features which speak of care by the developer — that they use the app themselves and developed the app primarily for themselves.

The only thing I miss from #IceCubesApp that #Tusker doesn’t have is post editing but it’s easy enough to add. I’ve just not bothered to do so yet since I don’t edit stuff that much.

@jaydubs I just tried out the build I have of #IceCubesApp because I was curious — was my memory that bad? 😛 Couldn’t find the hashtags or lists on the main UI. And I couldn’t see any references to hashtags or lists in the commit notes for the source code for the last week …

So it might be that it was there always but I never found it? I have no idea. Where do you find the hashtags and lists feature in #IceCubesApp? In #Tusker they are on the main sidebar where you can add different hashtags to follow or create lists of people to follow …

@jaydubs I've used #IceCubeApp on and off for several weeks but I had to modify the code to make it work for Akkoma 🙂 I submitted a PR for the change but they didn't really want to do it my way and it looks as if Akkoma compatibility isn't a priority for them.

I kind of lost interest at that point since I found Tusker at the same time. So I don't know if I misrepresented things to you (about hashtags and lists) due to bad memory, or if that was added very recently ... But if the latter, then probably within the last week since I was using IceCubes last week (I think ..)

@jaydubs #IceCubesApp is indeed great. But if you like the instance feature, you might also want to give #Tusker a look 🙂 (Not Tusky, BTW) It has the instance feature where you can add multiple instance timelines, but also has list and hashtag support, which I missed in IceCubesApp.

Ivory looks good and and in time might become great, but at the moment, it has the least amount of new/interesting features, IMO. Plus, it only works with Mastodon servers only and leaves out other Mastodon-compatiblie servers like Akkoma/Pleroma. Incidentally, IceCubesApp has the same issue. But Tusker works with other Fedi-servers too.

Do not listen to that bullshit. Worms are gross.

I keep hearing that #Mastodon is not likely to replace #Twitter. To that I say: so what?
I've been contributing to the #Linux desktop for the last 15 years not because it's likely to replace #Windows, but because providing people with free desktop is the right thing to do.
I use and support Mastodon not because it's likely to replace Twitter, but because it's a social network done right.

I'm a former historian, researcher / author who switched careers about a year ago to become a software engineer (currently an ML engineer @ ZenML working on #MLOps).

I'm retraining myself to think and work in technical domains. Software is my day job, but around the edges I'm studying #machinelearning (mainly via #fastai), mathematics (via Open University's #Q31 #mathematics degree) and also the 'Basic Program' at Chicago University.

Hellebores in my garden #aTinyGardenInNorthEastWales
I took this photo last March while having a wander in my back garden. At the time I had Covid and was looking for something to cheer myself up. The Hellebore flowers provided that cheer. Although I did manage to slice my finger open while cutting the flowers 🤦‍♀️

My latest soft pastel artwork is titled 'Bluebird for Happiness and Lucky Clover' becuase it combines a beautiful Eastern bluebird with a four-leaf clover. One symbolizes happiness while the other is a symbol of luck.
See this artwork now in my online gallery at https://mm-anderson.pixels.com/featured/bluebird-for-happiness-and-lucky-clover-mm-anderson.html and soon on the other sites listed in my profile.

Do I know any product design people looking for a new opportunity? A little birdie tells me a large and growing open source project will be looking to hire a product designer soon—likely working on established apps as well as new services.

Shoot me a DM (e.g. reply to this post with the visibility set to only people you mention) or get in touch somehow. https://cassidyjames.com
