I wonder how difficult it would be to add Lemmy support to existing Reddit apps.
was wondering the same thing. probably nowhere near as easy as it sounds. but in don't develop apps soni could be wrong
It wouldn’t be trivial. You could use some of the UI elements you already have but every interaction you make with the app triggers some sort of event, and a lot of those events would be functions that need to be rewritten to work with a completely different set of APIs.
I’m sure it’s do-able if the dev was inclined to do so though.
Yeah, it would probably be easier than creating a whole new app, but still a ton of work

If Boost, RIF, or any other app supported it, that'd make the migration a lot smoother.
