i’ve also seen some posts (made in good faith!) that still kinda bug me, talking about how we’re now competing with the likes of Ivory, Mona, Icecubes. I like all of those apps, I don’t think we’re competing at all. Mastodon.app is designed as the default experience for new users — a gentler on-ramp. We don’t have any incentive to force people into using our app. Use whichever app you like, that freedom is what makes this place so beautiful.
one last thing: a slow change you’ll be seeing is a divergence in designs between the Android and iOS versions of the app. iOS app will look more iOS-y, Android app will be a model citizen of modern Material design. The new onboarding flows we’re rolling out are the first looks into that idea.
