* Notes: The UI seems mostly done? Lots of crashes and instability. Not ready for day to day use at all. Developer seems to be inactive.

* Notes: The UI seems mostly done, but the UI reminds me of older Android apps from many years ago. GIFs don't play inline, they are frozen. GIF profile pictures do not work. No banner support. Slow performance.

* Notes: It's one of the closer to daily driver clients for Android that's out there. The UI is coming along really nicely. However, not being to do profile management or Lightning makes this a no go for me. Both banner support and Link Preview are really nice as most clients do not support these features at all.

* Notes: Let me just say the UI on this is very odd. The Android maximalist on actually hates it. It's not Material or anything related to Android. It feels like a Windows application. That said, it actually works quite well, minus being able to use Lightning, send DMs, or edit Relays. It also supports multiple accounts, which is a nice bonus.
