Is there an iPhone app for this yet? @Stonekettle
@GottaLaff I believe there is. I was just about to go look for the Android version.
@Stonekettle @GottaLaff there are a bunch for iOS. i've only tried a couple. i currently use Amaroq. the site is pretty mobile-web-friendly too
@bunnyhero @Stonekettle Sorry, I meant mastodon. Or whatever this is.
@GottaLaff @Stonekettle no worries! it can be confusing, compared to other social media :) there's no one official app, so the different apps have different names. just like you can get other apps that let you use with twitter (like tweetbot or twitterrific)
@bunnyhero @Stonekettle Great explanation, thank you!!
@GottaLaff @bunnyhero @Stonekettle Amaroq is a client app for Mastodon in much the same way the Twitter app is a client for Twitter.
Big difference is that Mastodon isn;t a single service. There's multiple servers running their own "instances" of Mastodon dotted about the Internet, of which Octodon is just one. And all those instances can connect and talk to one another, so you can follow and talk to people on another instance. :)
@TrollDecker @bunnyhero @Stonekettle Oh wow. Overwhelming. Thanks!!
@Stonekettle @bunnyhero @GottaLaff (Also, no, you're not being dumb. It's was super-confusing to wrap my head around at first, as well. 🤣 )
@TrollDecker Hahaha, thanks for that. @Stonekettle @bunnyhero
@bunnyhero @Stonekettle Wait, so it's not called "octodon" on the iPhone app? What's Amaroq? Or am I just being really dumb?
