Oh no, I'm going to have to create a whole new website for the app and then put the form there, won't I...

@Gargron you could just not do a mailing list

Eugen Rochko

@voltur I feel like I have to, otherwise it's a big missed opportunity to coordinate the launch

I've updated the design and the copy of the apps page a bit to include some information about the #iOS app. What do you think?

@Gargron looks good! but where's the android version? πŸ€”

Eugen Rochko

@jeff Perhaps later this year I will have something to announce!

jeff

@Gargron sweet! 🍻 Although the reg mobile experience is actually decent. Good job with it

@jeff @Gargron isn't Tusky good enough? That's what I use.

@grishka the problem is, apparently, that newbies want the app to be named Mastodon - all else is too confusing :sadness: @jeff @Gargron

@sigaard @grishka @jeff @Gargron this is the exact issue I have any time I try to get someone onto Mastodon. They instantly look for Mastodon on the Google Play store and then this it IS installed. Often forget it's called Tusky and not Mastodon.
Could probably just get the Tusky people to take on the android project and name it Mastodon.

Gregory

@Ekyllier @sigaard @jeff @Gargron well it is actually called "tusky for mastodon" and is a top result, for me at least

@Gargron I joined the patreon again to get the app on testflight - and it's superb! This is going to be big.

@Gargron Somewhat off topic, but I’d love a standard way to sync timeline position between apps. Without it I feel locked into a single app and device.

@Gargron Beauty πŸ‘Œ
Can I ask, why are you building an app yourself?

vattuvarg

@Gargron - Could the background of "introducing" be something less subtle? Bright red, perhaps?

@Gargron@mastodon.social still not sure why we would need an "official" app but the page is looking good.

even though it doesn't seem really fair to me to have the "official" app taking
so much space when all the other apps are "50x50 icon + name"

@Gargron Looking good but having the "official app" have so much more prominence then all the other apps that people put so much work into makes it feel a little weird. What about giving the other apps a text box to describe a key feature of their app too?

@Gargron Nice page.

How come you have had to make your own iOS app, while so many outside developers have created tools in both browser and other OSes? Is this discussed anywhere?
