From the article:

Mastodon is a great microblogging platform, but maybe you want to try something new. Firefish made a splash recently, and a lot of people are talking about it. If you’ve played with it for a while and want to officially take the plunge, here’s some tips on moving from your Mastodon Instance to a Firefish one.

I think Firefish has some nice UX improvements over Mastodon, like kbin vs Lemmy, but I like having a Tusky or Fedilab type of app. I see Milktea for Misskey/Mastodon, but looks like probably not FOSS and the screenshots in the Play Store listing don't really entice me to try it out.

Kaiteki is open source and supports Firefish as well as a lot of other fediverse services.

I poked at it a bit and it does indeed let you log in with a Firefish account, but it seems like it doesn't support threaded replies like Firefish and also lacks the Antenna feature?
