I think our official app downloads aren't quite where I'd want them to be, but it seems at least that the app is magnitutes better at getting new users onto the platform than any other app, which was the goal.

Numbers for mastodon.social sign-ups for the period from Sep 32 to Oct 23, 2021.

Sign-up sources:

Website 8,153

@grishka Too bad my post edit feature isn't merged yet. Supposed to be Sep 23.

@Gargron We also got a few! 💪

@Gargron is there an official app for Android? 😬

Chucho Bremmen

@Gargron Oh okay 😪 Looking forward to it, I use SubwayTooter and I f*ing hate it 😞

@Gargron I’ve been accessing as a pwa on my iOS device. Didn’t realise a native app existed so testing it out. This written in the app. 😃

@Gargron app appears to be missing federated timeline at present unless it’s merged in the main feed.

@lee It is deliberately not a feature. It's controversial, I know. I need to write a blog post about it at some point.

Lee Matthew Jackson :tbfm:

@Gargron oh ok. Look forward to the blog. I’ll keep testing the app but will keep the pwa going too as love me some federated timelines. It’s how I discover some peeps. Thanks tho. The app is super fast to post which is lovely.

@Gargron @lee “controversial” means a lot would want it, while a lot would not. Controversial things shouldn’t be excluded, they should be able to be turned on and off, IMHO.

@Gargron , the best bet for it was Twidere, as it not only posted "both" networks, but consolidate them into a single timeline. However, it's dead for now. Of course, I assume it's just an opinion.

@Gargron We use Tusky for Android. It gets the job done, but it's a little annoying because notifications don't always appear. Looking forward to Mastodon's official app whenever it rolls out on Android. 😎

@Gargron It would also be interesting to look at the trend of active user source. Are users signing up through Mastodon iOS then leaving the network or switching to a third party app?

@Gargron think the #TruthSocial débâcle is also getting some awareness for #Mastodon ;-)

Brayd :mastodon: :vegan:

@Gargron I use it. The only thing I’m currently missing are the different timelines like the federated one. In general it’s very stable and nice to use.

@Gargron I noticed you put Sept. 32 instead of 23. Is that an oops?

@Gargron not a huge surprise since the other apps don’t have any instance suggestion screens.

A fairer comparison would be how many Website signups came via joinmastodon.org, no?
