I am testing the following Lemmy Clients, and I don’t know yet what is the best for me.

  • Summit
  • Blorp
  • Jerboa
  • Thunder

I do need your help to decide. Summit I didn’t find it in f-droid, I installed it from the play store. Is Summit open source?

    Thank you. A few corrections/clarifications here:

    1. https://github.com/idunnololz/summit-for-lemmy was created because some users wanted an alternative to Google Play Store and so I made that repo to publish APKs back when Summit was closed source. This also has synergy with Obtanium. The repository is still actively used today. New releases are automatically built and published to that repository as APKs.
    2. Bug reports should be made to !summit@lemmy.world. I rarely check the Github for issues (sorry).
    3. One of the reasons why it was closed source was because I didn’t want to accept contributions. That has not changed, and likely will never change unless I retire the project. Especially now when vibe code is rampant.

      If you have it FOSS the community can check it and you gain more trust.

      Summit is in my closer circle of apps am looking at maybe using. Why don’t you put it on f-droid as play store alternative?
