Keep in mind that this is not a complete list of possibilities. You can even integrate a Twitter bridge (BirdsiteLIVE from the same developer by default).Īn honorable mention: there’s a Mastodon plugin for the Bitlbee instant messaging (IM) application. However, you can drag it out to display multiple timelines from multiple accounts at once. This Fediverse app displays as a sleek timeline widget by default. Sengi is possibly the most versatile Mastodon and Pleroma desktop client on this list. And while TheDesk can support Pleroma, the developers warn that there may be issues. It isn’t the prettiest to look at (as of version 22.1.1). Other unique features include Spotify integration, Aiscript plugins, text-to-speech (TTS), and app-wide word filters.
Timelines can be set to track specific users, instance timelines, and hashtags. It displays multiple timelines by default, a workflow surely appreciated by busy social media managers.
TheDesk has a similar workflow to Tweetdeck and Hootsuite. They are well suited for tracking multiple accounts and hashtags with little effort. These desktop applications let you do far more than the advanced Mastodon web interface.

Tootle is a simple GNOME app available from Flathub.
Note that Hyperspace uses a Non-violent Public License and is not updated regularly. Such features may benefit an organization with shared workstations. The Hyperspace app grants the ability to modify the branding, timelines shown, default instance, and login access for other users on the same machine. But what sets it apart is the high degree of customization available from the settings menu and config.json file. Hyperspace is similar to Whalebird with showing a single timeline at once and the ability to import multiple accounts. Windows / Linux / macOS / Web server hosting / Mobile Most notably, you can create custom timelines to better track your favorite hashtags. It does everything it claims to do without bugs. Whalebird is arguably the most stable Mastodon desktop app on this list. But you can only view one workspace at a time. You can quickly toggle between multiple accounts from the sidebar on the left.
