Hey new people, you don't have to use the official Mastodon app! There are lots of other options you can use such as third party apps etc. Most people who try these alternatives usually prefer them.
Mastodon doesn't impose any particular app on you. You're free to use your account in whatever way works best for you. Here is a guide to all your options:

If you want to compare apps, you can be logged in with the same account on many apps at once.
@FediTips from what I understand, the official app is the only free one that’s made with a decent quality. Everything else is either shitty pet project with design from early 2000s or a paid/freemium app

No seriously can anyone recommend a decent mastodon client for iOS with advanced features you mention and with no paywalls?
Or is it really a thing that "fediverse is not for those who agree to give their money to the evil corps like Apple"?
Literally every single app mentioned in this thread or the original article (except for Ice Cubes) are android apps.
