@eurasierboy I just want to let you know that I _love_ your app. I'm not aware of the complaints your receiving and that's just terrible. It's soooooooo much better a UX than the mobile browser version. Thank you so much for making it.
@quephird @eurasierboy Likewise! I've really been enjoying it, and having a good iOS client makes Mastodon much more usable for me.
@dog @quephird @eurasierboy it's amazingly usable! i rarely use birdsite except from my phone, so i'm quite happy with this.
@eurasierboy @quephird @dog oh the irony
@rabcyr exactly the same reason I had to make the app :3 almost 100% of my social networking is done on a mobile device
@eurasierboy i joined months ago but no app so not much use, then the recent popularity due to horrible birdsite change and i heard about your app
@eurasierboy I'm one of them. Looking good. Should totally have an awoo notification sound though.
@datarez the second Apple fixes the custom notification sound bugs you can bet there will be custom sounds
@eurasierboy thanks for an awesome app! Feels like Tweetie back in the old days.
@eurasierboy Hang in! I've been so happy with it. So much better than via Safari on iOS. You've got users appreciating your work every day!
@eurasierboy that's a lot of potential awoos
@eurasierboy I love your app! Thanks for making it and being a pioneer. I think it will pay off ๐
@eurasierboy congrats! love the app, very fluid! I'm curious, has any info been shared on how it's made? is it a hybrid app?
@asiamov it is a native iOS app written in obj-c

@eurasierboy Would it be possible for Amaroq to remember the last position when it loads new toots, and allow you to scroll up?
Or is there something with federation that makes that difficult?
I'm a completionist, so I like to start where I left off and read every toot in order (or at least, in the order it was received by my instance).
@bryan this is something on my list to do, and no it has nothing to deal with federation and everything to do with being an early v1 app ;3
@eurasierboy @bryan Great to hear, thanks! I was just about to ask for that exact thing, hehe.
@eurasierboy Yay! That's great to hear!
Keep up the good work! ๐บ๐บ๐บ
@eurasierboy did you get my Apple ID ๐ฌ
@TonyNof I did - you've been added. No new beta has gone out yet - awaiting approval from Apple I will announce when I push it in case anyone was missed ๐
@eurasierboy Thanks John!
@eurasierboy hey Iโm genuinely sorry for some of the flak itโs getting, I donโt think people realise youโre just this one person working on a (raD) thing in your spare time :( ๐
