If developers end up using Amethyst's code base to create additional social clients, that is absolutely fantastic.

Android's client offerings are lacking. We centralize into Amethyst, because it's the most feature complete. Plebstr, Current, Plasma, etc. are all decent and usable, but the honest truth is they aren't nearly as feature rich or stable just yet. I can't wait for the day when they're all fast, stable, and most features work without a flaw. I can't wait for true choices! I do have faith that these clients will continue to improve over time though.
