Thank you!

Is there a better source that tracks a broader range of Fediverse servers? At the moment, my app officially supports Mastodon, though I’m aware there are derivative forks and other compatible implementations.

Thanks, that's helpful!

Thanks!

Yes, that’s intentional — to view a thread or profile, use the contextual menu (right-click or control-click). Clicking is reserved for posts that contain a link or preview card, which will open in the browser.

Nope. I will add this feature in future updates.

Could you please give me some instance URLs so that I can check?

Thanks! I’m glad to hear that.

It’s an AppKit-first app — I’ve used SwiftUI in parts where it fits well, but I’ve avoided relying on it entirely because it’s still maturing, especially on macOS. In certain areas, it can compromise the native look and feel, or introduce unexpected behaviour.

As for Core Data, it’s a proven and robust framework that already does everything I need. Swift Data is still relatively new and doesn’t yet offer the same level of flexibility or stability for more advanced use cases.

Yes. It's not on the Mac App Store yet.

I’m currently developing Oliphaunt, a native macOS client for Mastodon, designed to offer a clean, responsive and fully native experience that feels at home on the platform. You can find more details, including screenshots and a project overview, here: https://github.com/anosidium/Oliphaunt-Feedback-And-Support. A new TestFlight build will be available soon, with plans for an eventual App Store release.
