Mastodon has a ton of apps and Lemmy app development is going crazy right now. Are there any apps that can use both Lemmy and Mastodon accounts (and preferably Kbin accounts too)? I know the interfaces may need to be different, but the protocols are the same as far as I understand it, so it seems technically possible.

    Not quite yet, it’s assumed that some of the bigger Reddit apps that are shutting down may do all three to maximise their userbase.

        Relay for Lemmy as well, but they actually seem to be trying to adapt to the new API for whatever reason.

          Infinity dev wants to go that route as well (paid subscription) thankfully Infinity is open source so people are doing what the dev won’t do and forked it to add support for other platforms as well as supplying your own API key to use Reddit.

            I saw that and will try it out eventually out of curiosity.

      That would be great. It’ll take some pretty good UI/UX design to make a single experience that works well for both types of communities. Looking forward to seeing what developers come up with.
