SeriesGuide VS glide

I would say Showly, despite being amazing, Series guide is better in my personal opinion.

SeriesGuide (version 2106608): keep track of your favorite TV shows and movies

You can track movies and all series including anime with SeriesGuide.

SeriesGuide

Trakt: Episodes for series (still needs some work for an enjoyable experience). Nekome can be used for anime and manga if you trust Kitsu. CineLog and Movie DB can both act as a database where you save movies or look up other movies, but they aren't actively developed and lack organization features. This is where SeriesGuide comes into play. It isn't on F-Droid and "tracks or reports your" activity but it can help you group and organize your series and movies. It has also premium features that require a monthly subscription.

SeriesGuide is actually open source.

Do you mean what I use to show the images? I am using the Glide library, you can find more information here: https://github.com/bumptech/glide

as mentioned in the other post i don't have too much insight in the art loading because its using https://github.com/bumptech/glide for all image loading. Resolution is the only thing i know for sure can prevent an imagine from successfully loading, whether or not that resolution is fixed or if its dependent on the device I have not been able to determine

Ah, yes, downloading images as a files works completely differently from displaying images and it doesn't use any cache. Though in theory you could rewrite downloading logic to use the same mechanism as display (which is Glide)

Glide

You can also take a look at Coil, Picasso or Glide which usually have some kind of crossfade animation when the image loads.

Image loading: Glide, Picasso, Coil, Fresco

Shortly said, they use React generally with fast-image and Glide for better loading of images Hermes JS Engine for app optimization. The app itself seems to generally use Kotlin and a few Java libraries and they also implemented Sqlite but I'm not sure about the use case for it probably they use it for progress though (The Developer/Marketer needs to confirm this), lastly they seem to use IntellJ Idea for programming and probably compiling

If you see a file like this: https://github.com/bumptech/glide/blob/master/library/src/main/java/com/bumptech/glide/RequestBuilder.java tell me that your eyes don't immediately go to the comments first instead of the code.
