Lemmy V1 is around the corner and Summit will need to be updated in order to support all of the new features. This is going to be a quite a bit of work so it will be the focus of the next release.
Changes so far
Update
I originally had some bug fixed done for this release in the WIP section however I decided to release them as a minor update instead. See https://lemmy.world/post/46998220.
I want to officially celebrate the release of Summit on F-Droid.
Although the app has been available on F-Droid for about a week now, I waited until the 1.82 release F-Droid to make the announcement in order to get everything ready and updated.
Launching on F-Droid has taken a lot of effort so we are celebrating in the release notes. In many ways, the biggest project in this release is getting the app ready for F-Droid. This includes updating all of the links, graphics and websites.
Now onto the 1.82 release. This update brings more quality of life improvements. The big one is a much more powerful duplicate post detection system. It's never fun to see the same post twice so this feature aims to eliminate seeing duplicate posts forever (as long as you are on the same account). The original feature was introduced many versions ago but it was an experimental feature and it has never worked very well.
The other big change introduced in 1.82 is the inclusion of per-user scores. You may notice these scores appear beside usernames. They display the total times you've upvoted a particular user minus the times you've downvoted them. Credit to Voyager which I think is where this idea came from initially.

Sorry I should have posted this sooner. I just wanted to give an update since development has slowed considerably.
I have been incredibly busy the past month due to family events (not bad just busy). It's dying down now so hopefully should have more free time but basically because of the events of the past month I have accumulated a long list of errands that I will attempt to burn down in the next couple of weeks.
After that I should be able to resume development on Summit. I would say thing should go back to normalish by mid July but maybe sooner if I work quicker.
Thank you for understanding.
Edit: Thank you everyone for the warm wishes.
I find "Smart list" posts layout close, but the problem is that images are not from edge to edge, which ruins the looks in my opinion.
Can someone guide me to get the "Jerboa for Lemmy" layout on Summit?
Hello, it seems there is a bug in the latest summit, previously if there was a comment or DM a notification dot always appeared in the inbox tab bar inside app, but in the latest version now the notification dot is not there and makes me not know if my comment was replied to
I think this adds nothing of value (as this is the only social media client that support this) while adding inconvenience for people who might enable it by mistake.
I think it would be beneficial trim the client to be slim and sustainable for the long term.
I thought it would be related to the setting "make bottom bar stay". Turned that on and off and it didn't solve the issue.
I have been using the app filters option to remove some posts I don't care about that are recurring, which is a nice feature.
There are however two problems with it that are sort of related, I don't seem to get it to work filtering combinations of words? E.g. I can filter for "hello" and "world" but when I make a filter for "hello world" it doesn't block anything. Is there a certain way you need to define those or does it just not work?
And since I can only do single word filters I have now the issue that I filter posts I do not mind actually. E.g. by trying to filter "hello world" with just "hello" I am also filtering "hello you". But whenever a post got filtered it does not tell you which filter was applied, it just says "this post is filtered because of a custom filter", or something like that.
Could that message maybe write out the word it filtered so one can see which filter got applied? Since I had wrong posts filtered I am now often checking, which post is behind the filter, but thats kind of removing the purpose of the filter.
Only example (this was injected with the emoji feature that pops up when writing in summit. I know that doubling the backslash fixes it by escaping the backslash itself): ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I can search the code and make a PR with the change, I feel bad asking to fix such a small thing. I can also open an issue later today if it's preferred but I can't right now sorry.
