I haven’t heard of Hydroxide before; thank you for highlighting it! Just one question: Does it also require a premium account like the official bridge, or is it also available for free accounts?
It’s great to see such cool FOSS options. Thanks for sharing this – super helpful!
This reminds me of one of my older projects. I wanted to learn more about network communications, so I started working on a simple P2P chat app. It wasn’t anything fancy, but I really enjoyed working on it. One challenge I faced was that, at the time, I didn’t know how to listen for user input while handling network communication simultaneously. So, after I had managed to get multiple TCP sockets working on one thread, I thought, why not open another socket for HTTP communication? That way, I could incorporate a fancy web UI instead of just a CLI interface.
So, I wrote a simple HTTP server, which, in hindsight, might not have been necessary.
I think the IzzyOnDroid repo is updated once a day at 6 PM UTC.
You are right. I think it’s time to release it on Google play. I also want to focus on getting the app into the main F-Droid repo as well.
I think this issue is fixed in this release.
