@[email protected] have you ever thought about making the app open source? I've used Connect for a little bit and I really like it, it would be really cool if the app was open source. You practically don't have anything to loose, as you don't sell the app or insert ads and trackers. Lemmy is an open-source plattform, and many (if not most) other apps are also open source, I think Connect should follow that direction. This would also allow you to publish the app on F-Droid.

I feel like the developer has abandoned it. I don't know if they're even looking at this community anymore.

The most recent statement we have from @kuro_[email protected] is that they are taking a break but have not abandoned the project: https://lemmy.ca/comment/3095598

I'm ok just taking some time for personal things. Regular updates will resume soon :)

That was almost two months ago and they haven't posted anything on Lemmy since that. I hope they haven't forgotten about Lemmy altogether. Would be nice to have at least the major bugs fixed. Or let people know whether this project is abandoned or not.

Good news, dev just replied to me, not abandoned.
