Description
This is a tall ask, and you can put this on the back burner. But seeing Fedilab on Android support multiple Fediverse platforms on the same protocol (Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed, Pleroma, GNU Social, Friendica) but no iOS clients currently supporting more than one, I just wanted to put this on here as an idea. And as multiple niche Fediverse platforms have been developed (Whalebird, Bookwyrm, etc) serving specific types of media beyond (micro)blogging, having a client app which can support them would be a good way to let users diversify their choices beyond just Mastodon. I'm motivated to suggest this idea by this thread.
Again, just an idea.
