** Ever heard about Husky ?
* Husky is a fork of Tusky that aimed to support Pleroma's Mastodon API extensions and some ideas that I may come up with.
* Tusky is quote, unquote,
... a beautiful Android client for [Mastodon](https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon). Mastodon is an ActivityPub federated social network. That means no single entity controls the whole network, rather, like e-mail, volunteers and organisations operate their own independent servers, users from which can all interact with each other seamlessly.
* Main changes so far
- Emoji reactions support
- Removed attachment limits for Pleroma
- Support for attaching anything on Pleroma
- Support for changing OAuth application name
- Markdown support with WYSIWYG editor
- Support for extended accounts fields, so you can see who is admin or moderator on your instance
- Subscribing support to annoy you with incoming notification from every post
- Support for seen notifications to less annoy you
- “Reply to” feature that allows to jump to replied status, useful for hellthreading ;)
...and much more. See the Husky home at : https://git.mentality.rip/FWGS/Husky
Bigger emojis!
Highlighting something which I think is absolutely UNIQUE in Husky, compared to other mobile clients :
- Markdown support with WYSIWYG editor
So people whose accounts are in instances running Progressive, more Advanced software, with support Pleroma's Mastodon API extensions (at this point Pleroma and Glitch Social instances) CAN use either:
* Plain Text.
* OR enhanced text formatting, via either MarkDown or BBcode tags.
These are supported in the Client, in a GUI environment, and will display the Rich Formatted text in the instances all over the Fediverse which support this feature.
That does NOT break or mangle the toot content in plan-vanilla Mastodon ones (majority at the moment), which simply STRIPS the format tags and display plain text version.
Examples of a post shown in screenshots at a Pleroma instance and in a mastodon timeline are attached.
I originally wrote the toot here at Qoto, then copied it into a Pleroma account to show the possibilities -- I find the image should give a good idea on how much BETTER it can look with a little added Formatting love.

- Pleroma Rich Text : https://expired.mentality.rip/objects/78ca65aa-4214-4b20-ad1d-9d839de70af7
...and what does the Enhanced, Rich Text post looks like here in a Mastodon instance?
if you Copy the post link, and Search for it inside mastodon, it will open the remote post, and display it within Mastodon's own client environment.
I am attaching a Screenshot of the Nice Pleroma created post, MarkDown formatted (as show in the previous screenshot) -- and how it looks here.
Plain Jane. Pitiful, but ** NOTHING Broken **... 😛
