anyone have a fave/best windows-OS masto client? i see six to try here:

github.com/tootsuite/documenta

may be time to liberate mastodon from firefox

Capella is instantly selling me just with that one screenshot and bullet list

github.com/coolstar/Capella

looks way more mature than i expected

@alyx Capella looks good on first glance but personally it feels pretty bad to use

@HeckTheCistem yeah i am using it and i just literally said out loud I HATE THIS because i can't find the options screen? where is it?!

@alyx God yeah I had the same first thought. Even when I found the frustratingly hidden way to add columns, I don't like not being able to maximize it. The theme colors are based on the Windows ones.
Mstdn is winning me over rn but none of them are particularly great

💫Alyx @alyx

@HeckTheCistem yeah this is not a good one atm

next up will try the pretty japanese one

@HeckTheCistem well, hold on to your hat, because i'm downloading Flantter from the windows motherfucking store atm

...at 72 Kb/s

@alyx Every time I use the Windows store I am thoroughly impressed by how slow it is

@HeckTheCistem fancy, huh?

the store is vile, UWP is a cancer, and my life will be better if i never commit to using UWP apps beyond Calculator

i'm actually surprsied how many of these masto apps are using UWP. is win32 so unattractive for these projects? (not a programmer...)

(oops, had the abbreviation wrong)

@alyx I ocassionally like UWP apps (I use them for audiobooks and Twitch), but most of them feel really cheap and limited. Electron is pretty unpopular amongst devs on Masto too, but there's still an app with that too
