In the last four years Tusky has gone from being a vaguely promising app out of a pretty middling bunch of choices to being possibly the best Fediverse/Mastodon client on android. It's responsive, feature-filled, and it's a heck of a lot more reliable than it used to be. (Original review, 20 January 2020 - 3 Stars: A stable and mostly reliable client that too often needs a kickstart (by closing it and opening it back up) and has a tendency to completely ignore my filters.)

I think this is probably the best Mastodon app for Android, and works well with GoToSocial. However, the image viewer is very poor because it doesn't seem to render the full resolution image, resulting in fuzziness if you zoom in. This seems like a trivial fix to me, so it's weird given that the rest of the app is so good. I can't find a way to save a search and then quickly switch to a timeline with the search results.

Image scaling is very poor in the main timeline, often leaving blobby messes. I really wish I could easily search through the people I follow and my followers with this app. Weirdly, I can type a user handle into a new post and sometimes find people that way, but that's very cumbersome. There isn't a way to require alt text before posting images, so you'll likely get nagged by other users to add that. The app is also very poor about consolidating notifications, cumbersome with popular posts
