Masto Android Apps gripes
the design makes me uncomfortable
- zero separation between the top/bottom bars and the middle, it's the same color without even a line
- where there's separation contrast ratios aren't great
- weird overly rounded corners on everything, especially avatars
- that border that makes my transparent avatar look awful
- animations are on by default
search is a whole-ass tab because gotta put trends somewhere I guess
it's missing core features of the platform
- no public timeline (instant deal breaker for me)
- doesn't show pinned toots
- can't access follower/followee lists
- polls don't have an option to allow multiple answers and you can only add options, not remove them again

@trwnh yeah it feels very rushed
the design seems on purpose though and it's painful how it's trying to imitate Google's Material You components and falling flat on its face

@noiob this probably isn't surprising, but it also lacks being able to pick focus points in pictures so the thumbnails of my drawings don't do psychic damage to me when i post them
that's actually the same things that made tusky a deal breaker for me
i do kinda like how it feels! but it really has a long way to go before i'd probably even consider using it
also we really call "having a dark and light mode" "being customizable" now?
