Will it be open-source?
Rooster, a Lemmy reader
Rooster is an Android app for Lemmy, that is heavily inspired by Boost for Reddit. It focuses on user experience and a good look and feel above anything else.
I'm not sure yet. Right now it's not, but if the majority of people wants it to be then I'd oblige. I have zero experience with managing open source projects though, so I'm not sure if it's a good idea
As the whole Lemmy and Fediverse ecosystem is mostly open source at least for me the usage of non open source reader apps is out of the question. It is about freedom so i would love to see this also as open source.
I'd also love to be able to download it from F-Droid. For now I'm sticking with Jerboa. It would be a bit weird to use a proprietary app, to access a free network. But still thanks for makung that app. The more good apps there are, the stronger tgd network will get 😀
Yes, if it's on F-Droid I will try it out!
