    As a boost user this is weird… So many people were asking in the subreddit and he never answered. I’m glad it’s happening

      Iirc he said he wasn’t going to work on a lemmy client earlier. Glad he changed his mind.

      Yeah 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.

      I 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.

        But 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.
