To put into perspective what is happening, here is 6 month of history of the processing required to run mastodon.social:

The problem with doing a client for this is lack of scale. Assuming there's 100k active users, 50% run iOS/Mac, probably < 10% of those would pay for an app. I'm thinking ~5k copies which sucks compared to the effort required.
