Pro tip for newcomers: You probably don't need an app. The site works well on mobile and (if you're on iOS) the add-to-homescreen option in the sharing panel will put an icon on your homescreen which makes it feel just like a native app! 📲

One thing that feels refreshing about Mastodon: I had forgotten what Twitter felt like before everyone had adopted this sort of detached, condescending, ironic persona. I never thought I’d be one to argue against irony or snark, but when you’re bombarded day in and day out by people dunking each other it can start to really affect your outlook.
