Ljdawson (Sync dev)Sync for Reddit is dead, long live Sync for Lemmy
DeffiExciting! Are you starting from scratch or are you able to copy portions from the old code over?
glorious_albusPretty sure a lot of the boiler plate code would be the same like upvote/downvote, etc.
Just that instead of telling reddit that user pressed upvote, now the app needs to tell lemmy.
Yeah, probably. Although I know with APIs it’s not always as easy because one uses HATEOAS, the other’s entities look entirely different and stuff like that. Just curious whether the data structure is roughly the same, I never looked at Lemmy’s Code or the Reddit API
It would be in lemmy’s best interests to make their APIs as close to reddit ones as possible.
stephencIt’s a little late for that, Lemmy’s API is mostly in place and already being used.
