About dandelion*
dandelion* is an Android client for the distributed social network diaspora*. It provides mobile access to network features, including browsing tags and aspects, sharing content to and from the app, and viewing articles in an in-app browser. The interface can be customized and includes a dark or AMOLED theme. It is translated into multiple languages, with an option to use an available app language independently of the device’s system language. The client supports proxy connections, including use with Tor through Orbot. It can also keep two accounts active on one device by using the companion dandelior* app for the second account. The mobile view displays network content through Android’s WebView component, so the available experience is tied to how the network’s pages work in that embedded browser. dandelion* is intended for people who use diaspora* and want a mobile interface for reading and sharing posts, following tags and aspects, and accessing network features. The supplied description says it provides quick access to most diaspora* features but does not enumerate every feature or guarantee that all desktop or web functions are available in the app.
