Native Windows client
For Windows, Whalebird is your go-to since it's in the MS Store. Most of the stuff I've found online as suggestions for Windows are web apps like https://pinafore.social/ or https://elk.zone. Personally, I just use the advanced web view. I need the columns.

Paul Graham is leaving Twitter
Which instance are you on? Mastodon is decentralized, there may be servers that are overloaded whereas other are fast. Like email.
I haven't noticed any big differences in speed, i use both Mastodon for iOS and Pinafore (https://pinafore.social/ ), a PWA. Just add it to your homescreen and it will behave like a native app (and sometime in 2023 Apple has said they will add push notifications to PWAs).

Fosstodon Hub – More Upgrades
I continue to see people stumble at mastodon resource requirements when setting up their instance, but I fail to understand why everyone is going for a mastodon instance for their personal use.
I am running https://github.com/superseriousbusiness/gotosocial on a micro instance, probably using 100M ram, with a 30M sqlite database.
True, I don't have all features. It is pure backend, but I can use https://pinafore.social/ as web client and https://f-droid.org/en/packages/su.xash.husky/ as Android app. It implements a good chunk of the Mastodon API. I also use it from Emacs with mastodon.el.
Took me 35 minutes to setup. It runs as a single binary from systemd. Most of the jail features enabled. Not even a system user (DynamicUser).
Mastodon != Fediverse.

Self hosted twitter?
Definitely Mastodon if you want all the nice features but there's also Pleroma and ktistec if you want to safe resources.
-
Minimal self-hosted setup?
If I understand correctly ktistec (a single user ActivityPub server) would come close and I can use that on Mastodon if I understand correctly, is there anything simpler?
-
How heavy is a single-user Mastodon instance?
There are also very lightweight instances such as ktistec (made for single users) and Pleroma (for many users).
