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.

    Ahh you mean the implementation of var in other langauges than python, i missunderstood you there! Yeah var is a bit risky to use in that case, same i like c# too! Its pretty reliable and stable.

      Yep, I was specifically talking about C#'s implementation.

      I worked with some large C# code bases, and you could always see the point in time in which an individual developer would finally get comfortable with var - it’s when the code would start getting unreadable. 🤣

        Yeah same ;D But at least its not like in smaller or medium sized python projects where even if its just 2 files its unbearable unpredictable.
