A nice article, also with a great explainer section on Phanpy.
An amusing note is that all the things the article lifts regarding handling conversations and posts being “in context”, and how that is so much more user-friendly than Mastodons single-flow default.
It is amusing as that is the functionality that Pleroma, and it’s bastard child Akkoma (which is what I use), has built-in for years, and one of my main reasons for using “not-Mastodon”.
When Pleroma/Akkoma does it most Mastodon-users call it “dated”, “complex” and “boring”. When another (Mastodon-client) service does it, it is called ground-breaking and amazing. Ah well.
But indeed, Phanpy also doing it is a great thing indeed, I use Phanpy myself, in particular on my phone, and it does it really nicely, along with having a multitude of other functionality.

This is my journey that started as an experiment to see how my Threads feed would look like on Mastodon and ended with me finding experiences that went above and beyond my expectations.
