You don't need to use the official Mastodon apps, they're not the best way to use Mastodon. The official apps only arrived last year, and they were intended as "Fisher Price My First Mastodon" things with a restricted set of features.

Third party apps have been around longer than official ones, and include way more features. You can sign in with the same account on all apps.

:android: On Android try Tusky, Fedilab, Megalodon, Tooot

:apple_inc: On iPhone/iPad, try Toot!, Ice Cubes, Ivory, Mona

@feditips That's good news because I have been VERY frustrated with the official app on my Mac. I have a little tiny vertical window for postings and discussions that requires a LOT of scrolling, with a HUGE window for just reblogs that are worthless because they don't include the original blogs. It's a mess.

Are you using the website on your Mac, or an app?

Have you tried the website? It's pretty good, and there's also an optional advanced Tweetdeck-style mode too: fedi.tips/how-to-activate-mast

In your case the website will be at techhub.social
