@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.

@josemanuel @tut Thanks for the reply! 👍 I use Firefox now, but I was wondering if any applications might have more functionality or configurations.

@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 ;)

@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.@nreygel @Whalebird @tootleapp @jsamwrites @angrylinus

@josemanuel @nreygel @Whalebird @tootleapp @jsamwrites @angrylinusGot me indeed. Was thinking like: yeah it's a binary. It will run on any $LinuxThen probably not an option right now.....
