Ah, didn't know that. Which apps would be able to read lemmy, if it's not too much of a hassle?
The reason I want to build this kind of proxy is that any app would be able to use it with minimal changes (configurable API server). For proprietary apps, you're still at the mercy of the devs, but their work is greatly simplified. For open source apps such as e.g. RedReader, Infinity, anyone could make those changes. Another thing that it might be useful for is bots and the like. If I manage to implement support for posting, those could work on Lemmy as well. I personally would like to see the return of kg2bee.
