Been testing @MonaApp for a while now and just bought a license for it. It’s a one-time activation (which I hope will be able to sustain its independent developer). Check it out if some of your devices are still stuck in Apple’s walled garden.

Die Apps der Deutschen Bahn (DB Navigator) sind nicht nur datenschutzunfreundlich, sondern auch rechtswidrig. Dank des Deutschlandtickets kann der ein oder andere aber vermutlich auf die App(s) verzichten und benötigt eine reine Angabe der Fahrzeiten. Das bietet Transportr - und zwar vollkommen datenschutzfreundlich! 👏👇

Heute Abend zur Mastodon-Prime-Time (20:30 Uhr) erscheint der App-Check zur Booking.com-App. Rechtlich bewertet von @peterhense. Teaser aus dem Fazit: "Die Datenschutzverletzungen von Booking.com sind vergleichbar mit einem verheerenden Verkehrsunfall, der so erschütternd ist, dass man einfach nicht wegsehen kann."

Stay tuned! 🍿

I know I'm far from the first person to point this out but it blows my mind how people are going bonkers over AI and how it's going to change everything when every time I use it it just plagiarizes a pre-existing website

EgyptianAphorist,

@AbandonedAmerica Some AI is, of course, better than others.

Tomorrow I'm heading up to NYC to talk with some investors about Public Assembly and what we're up to! Very excited for the opportunity.

I'll be sure to post photos of the trip this week. Wish me luck.

What's the best for ?

Everyone says "don't use the official ", though I have no idea why.

Heard good things about but I also heard it's no longer maintained?

So I tried @ivory but I have to sign up for a subscription just to find out what benefits a subscription gives (aside from the ability to post). Nope, sorry.

App must: have no ads, obviously, and absolutely must handle posting & reading threads in a sane and sensible way (unlike the web)

So now that has been around for a while, what is the hands down best for ? Quirks of the web app are getting old and I wish for a better experience.

@tootapp I want to block a user that is sending me pm spam. Do I have to do it in the webapp? The client doesn’t seem to allow it?

Oh well, the official app doubled down on making mastodon.social the default sign-up server. This is a risky move because this will undeniably make the server bigger than it already is.

It is still unclear why mastodon.social, of all instances, was chosen, while there are so many other instances. I'm not too happy with this decision.

@MonaApp just released and I purchased the Mona Pro Max version for 2200 yen which gives a lifetime multi-platform license - a bargain at twice the price. I’ve been using the beta for a few days now and really like it so far! Highly recommended.

Mastodon apps keep getting better and better🥰

finally @MonaApp for mastodon is out of beta and officially available in the appstore

https://apps.apple.com/app/mona-for-mastodon/id1659154653

i think i‘ve tried almost all mastodon clients for ios in the last couple of months and i‘m still hugely impressed what the mona app can do compared to all the other apps out there. it‘s so versatile and feature packed! not to forget the wonderful themes that are regularly available via @chamona
