If you have Mastodon you can just try it?
It's a Mastodon client. It has many neat features. I like it on desktop because it's easy to navigate with my keyboard. It's also great on phone. Overall pleasant, Mastodon users should try it out. But I feel like describing it at length is not really productive - it's a user interface.

I’m not giving access to my Mastodon account to some random service I’ve never heard of for no reason.
But I feel like describing it at length
I don’t need length. Any sort of description at all would be helpful.

If it makes you feel better, it’s all client-side: there’s nothing executing on the server (I’m running a copy of it on a server that just… can’t execute anything) so it’s not doing any data stealing.
Buuut, since it’s trivial to host, you could grab a copy of the code and host it yourself as well.

It’s fairly literally just a download-and-run kind of deal it seems. Does seem pretty trivial.

This person couldn’t be bothered to search “Phanpy Mastodon” to learn more, literally everything is non-trivial to them. They probably have to remember to breathe.

I can absolutely Google. But I choose not to. Because fuck Google.
When I did a web search it just directed me back to this same page.

It's a nice user interface, made by @cheeaun@mastodon.social, and loved by a lot of people.
If you don't want to trust people with your account details that's fine - then using a third party app is probably not for you, unless you're willing to either trust people or dig into the source code.

@liaizon@mesamunefire@phanpy it really is. I love the catch up feature too for times where I feel behind on everything in my feed. I usually start the morning with catch up from the past few hours and it's really helpful. I've also tried probably every Mastodon app and after each time I always come back to Phanpy. It's too good. I do wish there was a setting to display likes and repost counts below posts in the feed however. Would make it even better.
threaded - newest
Works great with Akkoma as well.
I 2nd that!
l freaking love that this thing exists, the summary feature is some next level genius
OK. There’s absolutely no information about it?

That's great!
It’s not just for mastodon users, that’s selling it short
Let me Google that for you.
Google away, my guy 🤷
Always liked Phanpy
Donphan is legit, too.
Easily the best client
Ok I liked it. Its not perfect but its ok.
inb4 nintendo sends cease and desist
They'd get busy: The creator of Phanphy also maintains a list of github repos named after Pokemon.
