Mastodon Android app with federated and community timelines

This will no longer be maintained. You should use Tusky or Fedilab instead of the official Mastodon app.

(and you should not use Mastodon too ;))

Mastodon + for Android

This is a repository for a fork of the official Mastodon for Android app. I will attempt to make it free from terrible design choices.

Building

As this app is using Java 17 features, you need JDK 17 or newer to build it. Other than that, everything is pretty standard. You can either import the project into Android Studio and build it from there, or run the following command in the project directory:

./gradlew assembleRelease
