Have I missed something? I'm writing this comment using Connect for Lemmy

Connect isn't FOSS, as far as I know

So, there's another Connect out there for something else? Or the poster above wants the maker of Connect for Lemmy to release their source code?

FOSS means free and open-source software…

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Exactly. The developer might open the source according to some reports in the past.

The developer of Connect said they might release it as FOSS app one day. That'll be the day I reinstall it. For now I'm using Jerboa.

Ah ok, now I understand ... though it's not something that I'd get excited about I'm glad the idea has you feeling enthusiastic :-)
