I've tried Tusky and Fedilab for Masto.

Yes. I don't so much care abt load time but not being able to read a convo is annoying.
@tiefling
Agreed that would be a dealbreaker for me. For the most part I can just click a message, it will load the full Convo and then i can scroll up and down to see what was said
️sorry I dont have any other suggestions for software. good luck!

@tiefling
I have not had those issues with Fedilab...️I wonder if there are settings related to caching or similar that are making your experience worse?

I've tried Tusky and Fedilab for Masto. Neither is terrible but like, both have probs that mean I have to use both.
Tusky:
- No quote support (still)
- Doesn't find all replies
- Emoji support weirdFedilab:
- Can't load comments in long reply chain
- Refresh doesn't always work
- Hard to follow complex convos...so what else is there to try?
@tiefling Ice cube ftw!

@HurricaneWeasel
Ooh, good point. how do you force a remote conversation load? i know theres a button on profiles to load the origin version of the profile.

We run the instance, tho we are small. And def the app matters BC as an ex:
Tusky: Loads two replies to "other instance." Dio clicks on a profile, sees more replies on remote server. Checks Fedilab.
Fedilab: Six replies to same post.
Fedilab might be doing something "extra" I guess?
@tiefling @leanderlindahl Tusky has a long-standing bug where some posts on your timeline just get dropped. It might be that.
I think (but might be wrong) Fedilab has an option to fetch the original thread from the remote server to try and get missing messages. Recent Mastodon servers can do this too, so it shouldn't make a difference now.

@tiefling Quickly becoming a big Phanpy fan.

@tiefling I use moshidon, and I think it's great.
I love Moshidon @moshidon which is a fork of the no longer under active development Megalodon @megalodon
However, it crashes so often for me that I'm actually trying Fedilab @apps again. Even the I don't like many most of the design decisions they made, it hasn't crashed once. Like so many glyphs with no text to explain what they do. Are you trying to be Microsoft?

@jrdepriest @tiefling Really? That's a bummer. It's literally never crashed for me.

@pachli
Yes, you're right. Fedilab can query the public API of remote instances to fetch full conversations or profiles directly from the source. Especially useful for small instances with limited federation. On interaction, the search API (WebFinger) brings the post into the local instance so interactions work normally.

@pachli How is Pachli handling this? @tiefling @leanderlindahl
