Sometimes I like to browse Mastodon just to see what’s going on, especially when breaking news is happening (similar to how twitter used to be useful for). I don’t have any interest in posting or commenting or boosting or anything, I just want to browse. I’m currently just using mastodon.social as a PWA and it works ok I guess, but I’m wondering if there are any android apps that will allow me to browse Mastodon without requiring a login.

I tried looking at a bunch of Mastodon apps about a year ago and every app would start with a login page and wouldn’t let me proceed until I logged in. Is that still the case? Or are there any apps that will let me browse anonymously without logging in first?

I will say, this is one thing I love about Lemmy over Mastodon. Every Lemmy app I’ve tried defaults to anonymous browsing but still has the option to login if you want. This makes it so much easier to try out multiple Lemmy apps to see which one I like best.
