What's the impact on release APK size? |
2.7 megabytes commit 262277c |
@topminipie Is right. I just ran a couple builds and got these results for APK size. |
What are the advantages of switching to Coil? |
I generally prefer to use Coil in my Android apps nowadays because of the Kotlin-first syntax. Working with it in the Dolphin, Citra, and yuzu Android apps has been very plesant whether it be for loading images with the built-in options or creating custom loaders for the job. As for performance or special features, I don't know of any advantages Coil has over Glide. |
It sounds like Coil is a nicer library, but we're just unsure if we want to move when it increases app size slightly without really offering any advantages for us. We'll need to think about it. |
Glide is still maintained. If it wasn't, it would be an easy decision to replace an unmaintained library. |
That's fair |
Closes #352
