Mastodon being 65% was a surprise to me for sure. What's the best mastodon app?

Also how do I use it efficiently for tech related news and info? I never got into twitter.

Edit: I should probably specify for Android

Moshidon is really good for android. I especially like that you can have custom timelines for basically anything

Ooh, that sounds like a great feature.

Mammoth, Ice Cubes, Ivory all good on iOS

My vote is ice cubes for ios. Ivory was severely lacking in features despite it being paid.

I like Tusky on Android.

Moshidon 100%

You don't, you use RSS.

You can look in the trending news section. One of many baffling design decisions of Mastodon is hiding all the trending posts, hashtags and news under the search function.
