Phanpy: A minimalistic opinionated Mastodon web client
The creator of this (Chee Aun) is quite prolific and creative with their work (https://cheeaun.com/projects/).
They created https://cheeaun.life, a timeline of their life, more than 10 years ago (which looks to be kept up to date), which was my inspiration for markwhen (https://markwhen.com).

Show HN: Markwhen: Markdown for Timelines
I'm glad you're here to see it!
So cheeaun here posted his life timeline project[0] 9 years ago (!) to hacker news[1] and I always thought it was pretty neat. I made a tool to make timelines like that and it has since evolved into markwhen.

Phanpy: A minimalistic opinionated Mastodon web client
This has lead to a delightful variety of custom clients like https://phanpy.social/ - https://elk.zone/ is another example that I really like.
It's the complete opposite of the Twitter API situation, where they locked their API down and killed the entire ecosystem of third-party clients.

Threads on Mastodon and the Bright Future of the Fediverse
Well, since it's a web client, it's pretty easy to just try it out, but the benefit of Phanpy is not that it's a web client. It's just it has a lot of nice little UI touches that make it very pleasant to use. There's an overview at [1], but I'm not sure if that does it justice - you kind of have to experience it. The most noticeable is that all boosts are grouped in a horizontal carousel, whereas you vertically scroll through other posts, but I can't quite explain why that's no nice.
