> all the politics was getting annoying

Dumb question but why would this be any different on Mastodon?

It’s not, I followed a prominent Clojure dev on there and it was mostly politics. Politics I mostly agreed with but it was too much to keep following. That’s not the only example, but it’s the one I think of every time I think of going back. I don’t think twitter needs a replacement, just quitting was good enough for me and that was long before mastodon came around.

That depends on the instance owner and the moderator team they have.

I can recommend Tusky or the official Mastodon app. Both are available in F-Droid.

Not only politics but non-related topics you follow, I wonder if in-tags of tweets would solve this.

I think Tusky is the most polished android client.

Fedilab has been pretty nice to use
