CLUSTER CLIENT-FEDERATED-SOCIAL · 5 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-02-21
Federated social mobile clients
This cluster consists of mobile apps for interacting with federated social networks, including general fediverse clients and specialized ones for book tracking and reading. The dated entry history is sparse, with single entries spread across 2019, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2026, showing no clear trend. Traction is uniformly low, with LoveLetter, Rocinante, and Mastodon each at 0 stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
