It took me less than 10 minutes configuring everything, and the newly released Spotifyd, combined with spotify-qt, solved my headaches using #Spotify.
I don’t have to deal with the awful, buggy, laggy, and icky Spotify default #webapp anymore

Found a Mastodon web client with a beautiful UI.

#Mastodon #Web #WebClient
This Mastodon web interface is new is a fast growing web client.
Fully functional and very useful and fast. Give it a try.
Usable on any browser although I would recommend Firefox in stead of Chrome of Edge.
Hat jemand einen Tip für einen #WebClient für Mastodon für Windows?
Gibt es welche mit Übersetzungsfunktion so wie bei #Tusky und #Fedilab?

Elk Mastodon web client released a new version 0.14.0 today. Anyone tried it with Misskey or Pixelfed?
Github repo here: https://github.com/elk-zone/elk/releases/tag/v0.14.0
Good to see that Phanpy made a better post box than Mastodon. Haven't tested the client with Pixelfed or Misskey yet

Genuinely hope the #Mastodon #MastoDevs are working on the massive memory leak that makes the #WebClient functionally useless after about an hour.
Seriously, its really bad on #Firefox, I dont know about other #browsers. This seems like some pretty basic foundational stuff. Its been this way for months. What's the problem?
What's a good #WebClient for Mastodon? I've been using #Soapbox. I love that the layout is similar to Twitter, which made it familiar and easy to use. But it's not really working anymore. Every time I go to the home page, it tells me I'm not following anyone.
My browser is Safari on Mac.
I have found that I can add or remove or re-order sidebar #widgets in the #WebClient on Calckey and I TOTALLY LOVE THIS because I can control my viewing/posting environment more. Want to add a clock, a posting form, and photos? Need it ruthlessly clean? Make it so!
Will probably spend the weekend fiddling around, adding and removing widgets (instead of, y'know, doing housework or researching.)
Do you know of any other web clients for Mastodon? Like #Elk ? drop some below if you do I'd really like to check 'em out
Just realised that the problem with the @elk web client (currently in Alpha, but it's great - such elegant design) is the lack of *affordance* when comments are displayed.
I *thought* that only 3 comments were ever available *because there were no visible hints or clues to tell me that other comments would be displayed if I scrolled down*. All I saw was white space.
I only discovered this functionality by accident. A classic usability issue. Such important functionality needs to be explicit, not hidden.
Easy to fix by providing some affordance - show your users what they can do.
Despite this, I'm lovin' Elk. It's great.

I'm a "let's push this button and see what happens" person, so I've tried most #web-based and #iOS #MastodonClients.
I found the #Elk (@elk) #alpha #WebClient yesterday, and thus far, I love it. It has a twitter-like feel, and I can hover over a name, view their bio and follow with ease.
It's a neat, clean, bright, comfortable #interface.
I can't wait to see what features appear next!
