## What it is
Phanpy is a minimalistic, opinionated web client for Mastodon, available as a hosted PWA at phanpy.social. It offers an alternative Mastodon UI with features like multiple accounts, grouped notifications, nested comment threads, and multi-column shortcuts.

## Use cases
- use mastodon from the browser with a cleaner interface
- manage multiple mastodon accounts in one client
- install mastodon as a progressive web app on my phone
- view nested comment threads on mastodon
- follow multiple hashtags in a combined timeline
- reduce timeline clutter with hidden status actions

## When to choose
- you want an alternative, opinionated Mastodon web UI with a minimal design
- you need multi-account support and grouped notifications in a browser client
- you want a PWA you can install without a native app

## When to avoid
- you need a fully accessible screen-reader-friendly client
- you prefer the official Mastodon UI or heavy customization/theming
- you need a native mobile app experience
