I’m really enjoying Summit, I’ve tried every Lemmy client I could find and I think this is the best one I’ve used. I can’t find the source code though, https://github.com/idunnololz/summit-for-lemmy seems to only list releases, is this a bug?
tl;dr the app is close source
Oh, that’s a shame but your reasoning does make sense. What (if any) guarantees are you able to make about how data (such as passwords) are handled?
I try not to handle any sensitive data if I can help it. I’m not a security expert so if I can delegate sensitive data to things better equipt to handle them I do.
Passwords are never saved to disk and only kept in memory. They are never logged and are only used for the login API. Any data I deem sensitive I store in internal storage which is storage that Android enforces cannot be accessed by any app except the one that created the data. (Technically if you root your device I think you can go around this but I don’t think any app can make guarantees for rooted devices).
Thanks, that seems pretty reasonable. While I’ve got you here do you have a place for bug reports and feature requests (or are posts in this community fine)?
Yep that’s partly what this community is for. You can either make a post for feature requests or bug reports or just comment on any of the release/wip posts.
