Moshidon, the material you mastodon client!
A fork of megalodon which is a fork of official Mastodon Android app adding important features that are missing in the official app and possibly won’t ever be implemented, such as the federated timeline, unlisted posting, bookmarks and an image description viewer.
Help out the project by donating at: https://github.com/sponsors/LucasGGamerM!
Key features
The ability to add other server's local timeline to your timelines
It can be accessed in the "Edit timelines" menu, where you can add a new "Community" to see other server's local posts!
View remote profiles
You can now see all of a profile follows and followers, by directly loading them from the profile's home instance. In case of a failed lookup, the app will automatically fall back to the older method.
Translate posts easily
Allows you to easily translate posts in another language with a translate button! Your instance must support translation, otherwise it will not work.
Show posts filtered with a warning
Allows you to have filtered posts collapsed with a warning! As shown in the screenshots:
| Before | After |
|---|---|

Color themes
Allows you to change theme within the app. Supports Material You, purple, pink, green, blue, red, orange, yellow and Nord!
Unlisted posting
Allows you to post publicly without having your post show up in trends, hashtags or public timelines (i.e., in the tabs “Local”, “Community” and “Posts”).
When posting with Unlisted visibility, your posts will still be publicly accessible in your profile. They will also be shown in people’s Home timelines, but only if they follow you or someone they follow reposted/replied to your post.
The Mastodon documentation has some more information about Unlisted posting and Public timelines.
Federated timeline
This allows you to chronologically see all Public posts from people on all other Fediverse neighborhoods your home instance is connected to.
Despite being one of the main features of federated social media, the Federated timeline wasn’t included in the official Mastodon app – supposedly, because this conflicts with Google’s safety requirements for apps on the Play Store.
That’s one of the reasons why choosing a small, well-moderated instance is important. Instance admins and moderators should always make sure to ban abusive users and stop federating with instances who platform them. On well-moderated instances, the Federated timeline can be a welcoming place to meet new people!
Image description viewer
Allows you to quickly check whether an image or video has an alternative text attached to it.
This is important to ensure the content you’re sharing is as accessible as possible to people who can’t see the images and rely on software to read back the provided content descriptions. Thankfully, it’s quite common for people on the Fediverse to provide such alt texts, and hopefully things stay this way!
Reminder to add alt text to attached media
By default, Moshidon will show a warning to add alt text if your post has any attachments without any alt text. This is for better accessibility, and it can easily be bypassed and disabled in settings.
Pinning posts
This lets you can highlight important posts on your profile. A dedicated “Pinned” tab in people’s profiles shows all the posts they pinned.
On the Fediverse, it’s quite common for people to pin posts they want others to read before following them. You can pin/unpin posts yourself by clicking the ⋯ button in the top right corner of your posts.
Bookmarks
They allow for quickly saving posts and viewing them through the Bookmarks button on the top right of your profile.
To bookmark a post, press the button between the Favorite and Share buttons on the bottom of the post. Bookmarks are saved privately, so the post authors won’t know you saved their post – the list of bookmarked posts is only visible to you.
Installation
Press the download button above to download the APK. Open the downloaded file on your Android device to install it. Moshidon will automatically notify you about new updates inside the app.
