@nreygel I'm pretty well served by Seamonkey, but you can use Firefox or Falkon instead. If you're an Emacs user, there's mastodon.el (https://codeberg.org/martianh/mastodon.el), and if you prefer a TUI, @tut looks good.
@nreygel Actually, they can't have more functionality by definition (either they implement all of the API, like the web client, or just a part of it), but they can be easier to use, have some kind of integration with other programs, or be less memory-hungry than a modern web browser.
@josemanuel they might offer a better UX, no?
@nreygel Maybe. That was implied in the “easier to use” part.
Please let me know your thoughts about the applications you decide to try. I'm interested.
@josemanuel I'm installing #whalebird (@Whalebird) because a slackbuild is already available for slackware.
#Tootle (@tootleapp) seems promising, but I'll have to make the slackbuild first to install it from source.
Same goes for #Sengi (suggested by @jsamwrites)
and #Tut (suggested by @angrylinus)
I'll keep you posted ;)
@nreygel @josemanuel @Whalebird @tootleapp @jsamwrites @angrylinus
Nothing beats fast and quick multicolumn handle then #tut 👇😎
(imho)
But happy to follow the thread and read about the outcome....
@toxision Tut seems like a pretty good and lightweight application, but it still lacks a SlackBuild (that I know of), which may make it easy to install, but harder to maintain in #Slackware.
@josemanuel @nreygel @Whalebird @tootleapp @jsamwrites @angrylinus
Got me indeed. Was thinking like: yeah it's a binary. It will run on any $Linux
Then probably not an option right now.....
@toxision @josemanuel @Whalebird @tootleapp @jsamwrites @angrylinus it's been 3 hours and I'm still compiling #Whalebird
@josemanuel @tut Thanks for the reply! 👍 I use Firefox now, but I was wondering if any applications might have more functionality or configurations.
