Mastodon This Twitter Alternative Now Has An Android App

When we talk about Twitter-like social media apps in the market, Mastodon often comes up in the conversation. It has arguably been one of the best alternatives to corporate social networks in the recent past. So, after releasing its very own iOS app last year, the company has now released an official Android app on the Google Play Store. Here’s all you need to know.

Mastodon’s iOS app features a Twitter-like UI. You can log into any community, search for posts, receive notifications for new posts, send them to other members of the community, and experience the decentralized social platform on your Android device.

The platform uses the open-source ActivityPub platform, which has also been used by various other social media platforms such as PixelFed, an Instagram alternative. It also ensures user safety with anti-abuse features and allows for the limit of 500 characters, which is more than what Twitter has.
