someone is working on a reddit api compatibility shim so reddit apps could connect to Lemmy without redesigning their apps

https://github.com/derivator/tafkars/tree/main/tafkars-lemmy

“Tafkars stands for “The API formerly known as…”, is written in Rust and is pronounced like “tough cars”. Tafkars is an API proxy that allows apps to talk to Lemmy through a familiar API from a kinder time. The hope is that this will make it easy for app developers to support Lemmy with only minimal code changes.” @fediverse

      Hey. Don’t dis my first love. 😊

      I still have Infinity installed and will miss it sorely. It has some features Jerboa is still missing. But I am hoping some of these 3rd party devs will find a love for Lemmy. If Lemmy can hold a growing community.

      Better have a smorgasbord of different apps, it’s great if we can get a decent competition going.
