Does the Android-App support the different Timelines (Home, Local and Federated) and Editing already?
That's basic functionality on the Website and way better than anything from the :birdsite: -site.
I missed that a lot on the iPhone-App and had to choose a 3rd-party one because of that a couple of years ago.

@karbuziran Great questions!
✅ Home + local TL (in the Search tab)
✅ Editing posts
We've avoided putting the federated timeline in the first-party apps since the goal for those apps is, first and foremost, to demystify Mastodon for new users.
From our user testing, it consistently freaks out newcomers to see a firehose of absolutely everything (a fraction of which might be interesting to them, let alone in their language).
We're still exploring discovery features, but federated TL isn't it.
