Phanpy doesn't support quoots yet, so I'm using Mastodon's stock web interface and.. it's bad. Compare how busy it looks with unnecessary stuff (do I really need a "post" input form on screen at all times? Do I need a link to "favorites" visible at all times?), but also - the fonts are bad. Bad, bad, bad. Just so much harder to read. And the timeline toots just kind of run together, rather than being clearly delineated by whitespace in phanpy.
FYI for iPhone ppl who prefer phanpy or another of the browser masto clients

Mastodon *does* have an algorithmic feed if you want one. It’s identified by different names in different clients but “Trending” is usually part of the name. I think it works well, hit the “Trending posts” and “Trending links” (called “News” in the Masto web client) once a day or so to get a feel for what’s happening in the world.
As with many other things, PhanPy is really good at presenting this stuff..
#PhanpySocial changelog ✨
💬 More support for (upcoming) Mastodon v4.5's native quote posts
🐛 Bug fixes
(2 quick fix releases were made within hours, now should be fine)
🔗 https://phanpy.social/
Removed Google and to my surprise the Admin option vanished because I had none enabled! Added Mastodon back in as phanpy.social (the 'simple' change I set out to do hours ago) and so far I have my tab back. Will enjoy it a bit before I tempt the gods by adding Google-Integration back.

We must go deeper... (Phanpy doesn't handle it well yet)
Actual adulting when the children aren't watching (also experimenting with quote posting from ohai.social via Phanpy, does this work now?)

Probably still early to speculate. Either someone can confirm if @… is still being maintained, or someone needs to take over maintenance.
There hasn't been much updates, but it still fills the gap where Phanpy falls short.

@… on dev.phanpy, I can't set "anyone can quote" it just switches back to "only you can quote". This a TBD?
Not sure if it'll be useful, but looks good 🤔
Too bad I can't add a Share/Download (image) button due to CORS issue (avatar image and header image). Possibly can fallback to just pure solid-color version but doesn't look as pretty 😆
