Overview
Pros of Twitter (first party Android app):
- It’s free
- Supports features Twitter hasn’t released to third party apps
- Polls
- Moments
- While you were away
- Notifies when multiple people you follow tweet about the same thing/like the same tweet
- Shows photo tags. But who tags others on Twitter?
- Notifies when a favorite user retweets something
- Pushbullet opens notifications as twitter.com
Pros of Fenix:
- Dark theme
- Displays Instagram photos (and probably a few other things that Twitter doesn’t)
- Doesn’t have ads (aka “Promoted Tweets”)
- Has multiple feeds
- Timeline
- Favorite users
- Especially useful because their tweets don't get lost if the notification is lost
- Activity
- Messages
- Mentions
- Likes
- Shows what client other posts came from
- Option of circular or square profile pictures
