There may be a large overlap between those interested in other platforms/self-hosting/akkoma and those who use deck UIs ... basically "power" (more likely obsessive/fussy) users.
Relatedly, something interesting that’s happened over on lemmy is the practice of running multiple front ends. Lemmy.world runs 4 apart from the default (5 total). I personally use 2.
And of course mastodon provides both single column and deck view.
As much as you like mangane and as good as it is, decoupling instances, platforms and clients/front ends (with plugins for compat) may just be where things are now.
Also, doesn’t akkoma support the mastodon interface?
@maegul Akkoma supports multiple front-ends, and you can indeed use a Mastodon-like FE called Glitch.
However, akkomane.social has a very singular purpose which is to promote Akkoma + Mangane. This isn’t the default FE for Akkoma but, IMO, it’s the best.
