  @GOKUSHRM I can't really answer that, I just tried a couple that people recommended and decided which one I liked best for myself. That was a few years ago so I can't even remember what else I tested or what the differences were. A lot of it is UI, yes. Some will have more motivated developers so will keep up-to-date with new Mastodon features more quickly. Different developers have different things they're interested in too. Some might focus on filters, some might make quote-boosts work really smoothly. I don't know if any have focused on advanced settings. I suspect that's less likely since most advanced settings are things you set up once and forget, so the app developers figure they'll focus on things people will be doing on the app every day instead. But you could try a few different apps to see. https://fedi.tips/which-apps-can-i-use-should-i-use-the-official-app-or-a-third-party-app/ lists some common ones and provides a good general explainer about apps too. @stux
