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.
It’s kind of ironic taking a project that’s already written in Rust and writing a replacement for it in Java.
Usually things get ported to Rust, not the other way around.
Yeah I don’t think I want anything Java running on my systems…
