   Thanks to everyone who helped me last week with Mastodon app recs for Android! ❤️

   I've written a post where I go through them all and reveal I've switched from Twidere to... Twidere? What?! ?

     Have you enabled the auto-fetch feature? If so, maybe disable it would help.

     @accudio
     I'm sharing your frustration, I really miss Twidere but still use @apps for its per account timelines and easy cross sharing/bookmarking. I've seen three causes for the timeline jumps: a) it loads a batch of posts in the background and jumps by 40 posts, roughly; b) it is OOM killed in the background and doesn't store position, starting where you were before; c) it confuses the post you were reading with your or somebody else's boost of it, much later in the timeline

     @noodlejetski Do you have a good experience with Fedilab? As I say during the post I really like it but it was pretty unreliable in maintaining timeline position

     @noodlejetski Yeah, my hope is that the Twitter API shenanigans make them reprioritise Mastodon a bit more in TwidereX or back in the original. Seems unlikely though unfortunately!

     @accudio the development has been pretty slow in the first place, so they'll probably rather just abandon it altogether at some point :/

     it's mostly just nostalgia talk from me though, ever since I've tried Fedilab, every other client just feels subpar.

     @accudio sadly, it hasn't been updated for a while. it's a shame though, it used to be my favourite Twitter client, back when I was using Twitter. there's TwidereX, but it's just... not the same, man.
