At the time of writing Summit for Lemmy should be completely open source.

After a lot of contemplation I've decided to open source the app. There are still some changes that probably need to happen before it can be considered "FOSS" but this is a huge step I think.

As I'm voiced my opinions on this previously, the main repository for Summit will not be to the public for PRs. If you encounter bugs or have any feature requests please continue to send them through the proper channels (ideally to this community).

Enjoy~~

The source is available and the license is definitely free. What else is there keeping it from being FOSS?

Oh I thought it couldn't have proprietary dependencies but that's not apparently true. Nevermind. I guess it is FOSS now.

I cannot find a definitive answer on whether or not a program with a proprietary dependency can still be considered FOSS. But you did?

I don't know about definitive...

I think you're getting confused with f-droid compliant
