I don't know what it is, but I just don't find it appealing. At the moment I am giving Phanpy a chance. It definitely looks sleeker, but I am not sure if it works for me in the long run. What Mastodon web clients do you folks recommend?

I realize thei isn't for everyone but I used TamperMonkey to override the CSS in the space-wasting default web client and am now happy with how it looks.
