It's a decent start for a native-ish client app, but it's clearly still in early development with a fair bit to go.
- In the feed nothing in a post is clickable except the post itself. You can't click links, handles, images. Trying to click takes you to the single post view, where then they're clickable.
- Viewing images is especially rough (which to be fair, it's always hard to show arbitary aspect ratio images in a timeline app like this). Shows in one cropped fixed aspect ration in timeline, and another cropped aspect ratio in post view. Takes two click to view the full image, where it opens in your browser.
- Vertical rhythm/spacing is off, making timeline hard to read. Difficult to see where one post ends and the next starts.
- Clicking a reply in a thread takes you to the top of the thread rather than the post you clicked.
- Can only post text. Can't even attach images.
I'm excited for a neat native Windows mastodon app, so I'll check back in on this every now and then to see how it's getting along.
