I use thedesk.top, which is written for mastodon and misskey - so although it avoids most of the annoying mastodong things like image limits (still applies on mastodong instances, but not on pleroma even though it uses mastodong's API code), it still has some quirks. For example, if you choose to load media from remote source instead of from local instance proxy (generally irrelevant since most instances disable it, and of the handful that don't, I've seen one that overwrites remote_url with the proxy as well wtf), gifs will no longer play because they try to render as a video (because mastodong media mangling). In fixing that I introduced a bug with videos on pleroma instances viewed from mastodong accounts which I "fixed" by checking the file's extension. And now cutls has gone and converted the whole thing to typescript (it's an electron lmao), so I can't be fucked adjusting my patches. I'd rather be writing my own client.

@sjw@threat@dcc@NonPlayableClown My point is that the client doesn't impose these restrictions; since cutls also uses misskey, and is thus not a true mastodonger.
