minus-squarepwnstar@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·edit-21 year agoAs a boost user this is weird… So many people were asking in the subreddit and he never answered. I’m glad it’s happening
minus-squarecycle_schumacher@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·1 year agoIirc he said he wasn’t going to work on a lemmy client earlier. Glad he changed his mind.
minus-squareSneckster@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·1 year agoYeah he’s been really quiet about it all hasn’t he. Will definitely be giving it an install when it lands, I’ve used boost for so long.
minus-squareSir_Kevin@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoI wouldn’t be surprised if RIF springs up too. I think devs are starting to see the magic happening here and it’d be easy’ish to port an existing app.
minus-squareCoderKat@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-21 year agoBut what would it be called? LIF? RIF for Lemmy? Also, would it do the whole LIF is Fun thing as opposed to Lemmy is Fun? As an aside, I wouldn’t say it’s easy to port an existing app. Easier, maybe, but it’s still a lot of work, depending on the API structure, feature differences, etc.
