By request, I've done a brief review/overview of the excellent app @Tusky for Android:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/tusky-for-android/
Hopefully this overview is accurate, do let me know if you spot mistakes.
Overall, it's a really solid app packed with features and an easy to use interface, anyone with an Android device should try it. Recommended 👍

Tusky has polls!
You can add one to a message by clicking the attachment button 📎 and then select Add Poll

@feditips @Tusky I've been using Tusky as my app since I decided to put effort into Mastodon.
The only thing I miss is polls. I LOVE scheduling

Yeah, it's kind of hidden... 🤔

@feditips @Tusky I've just missed that despite uploading plenty of photos
MrPhilSlade
unfortunately it fires up Chrome (default browser)
when you want to sign up to Tusky on Android,, other apps have the same problem.

Yeah, I was trying to say that but I phrased it really badly!
I've edited the post to make it clearer.

Tusky actually has a draft post feature. Just escape a draft with the back button.

Yes, I just did another post about this topic:

@feditips @Tusky My favorite Android app for Mastodon.
I see people looking for Fedi alternatives to Reddit. Have you already discussed that? TIA

Ice Cubes is pretty good too :)
If you're okay with subscriptions, Ivory is very popular.

@feditips What do you recommend for iOS?

On Tusky:
1. Tap your account icon in the top right corner to open the options menu
2. Tap the "Account Preferences" option near the bottom of the menu
3. Click "Followed Hashtags" to see all your followed hashtags. You can unfollow by tapping the icons next to them.
Jon
@MaryPot @feditips @Tusky yes, it does. Search for the hashtag, select it and here you go. By clicking on the x you can "defollow".
MaryPot
Something I really miss in the online version is the ability to mute hashtags as easily as I can now follow them. It would just take another icon to click on at the top when I have clicked on and gotten a hashtag list.
Does Tusky do that?
Tusky
1. Click the hashtag
2. Click the "mute" icon at the top right of the screen
That creates a filter that mutes that hashtag. You can adjust it further in Account preferences > Filters

Nice! 🤩 Didn't notice that feature!
MaryPot
Often, it is hashtags like caturday that I am seeing so much of, I want to ignore them everywhere.
The function you showed me here is for unfollowing something I am following. That works on the web too.
What I would like is an ignore icon next to the follow icon, so I don't have to copy the hashtag and open my lists to add it to my ignore list.
Thanks, though! 🙂

The more I use Tusky, the more I think Mastodon should have come to some arrangement to have Tusky as an official app in exchange for sharing Mastodon's donations, or something like that. (Maybe a simple fork with Mastodon branding to make it easy to notice for new users?)
Tusky already existed long before the official apps were even thought of, and is a lot more mature.
MaryPot
Okay. That's in your app, right?
Wish it was on browser as well. It is really lagging behind.
Do you have a couple of spare developers you can send them? 😉 😁

Is this a Pixelfed account being used through Tusky?

@feditips @Tusky Any idea why I keep getting repeat notifications of someone liking or clicking on favourite on my pixelfed account posts on #tusky?
