If you want to see Mastodon at its best, strongly recommend these options:
Android - Use apps Tusky or Fedilab
iPhone/iPad - Use apps Metatext or Toot!
💻 Computers - Log in through your server's website
Mastodon was designed for websites and third party apps. These are *still* the best ways to use Mastodon!
(Official app exists because new people were only looking for an official app in app stores, and giving up when they didn't find one. You don't need to use it!)

Yeah I very quickly switched to Fedilab and am much happier with it. Especially the ease of switching between main, home instance, and federated timelines right from the bottom icon row.
