The Threadiverse is growing again, this time offering an effort to build a new Lemmy replacement from scratch, with API compatibility.

Seems like an interesting effort. A developer is building an alternative Java-based backend to Lemmy’s Rust-based one, with the goal of building in a handful of different features. The dev is looking at using this compatibility to migrate their instance over to the new platform, while allowing the community to use their apps of choice.

    *Vaguely wave arms towards the few dozens languages that do imports right*

    I don’t mind Java personally, but let’s not pretend that its import syntax and semantics is at the better side of the spectrum here.

    Just look at… Go, Haskell, TypeScript, Rust, even D has a better module system.
