@boby_biq thanks again. Ivory has been my main (and only) Mastodon ios client since it came out. I like it although the way it loads old messages is beyond annoying. The developer clearly only aimed at heavy users and didn't think of the people who only use the app occasionally.
but I mostly access Mastodon via web browser on my computer. It is more feature rich than any 3rd party app I tried but has an extremely clunky UI. I'll take a look at the other apps you mention.
