@dansup @vidzy hmm I've been learning #Rust & want to start a project I can list on my resume before applying to Rust jobs.
Was thinking a #Fediverse #GTK / #Libadwaita client would be perfect. Was leaning toward #Lemmy since the backend is also Rust, but the UI for that would be more complex & is daunting for my zero exp w/ UI (outside of React)
#Loops would probably need a lot less UI complexity, so maybe I'll make that instead.
@Lehmanator @dansup
Once we get the same API as Loops, it'll be for 2 fediverse platforms!
@vidzy @dansup Lmk when you guys settle on an API!
In the meantime, I'll learn up on #ActivityPub, so I can understand wtf is going on without waiting for API stability & documentation.
@Lehmanator @dansup @vidzy BTW, there is a new #Rust #GTK4 client in progress for #Lemmy, but not mature yet:

EDIT: but the last commit apparently was 5 months ago
Maybe, it is possible to join the project
@GerryT @dansup @vidzy I saw this (along with this: https://github.com/lemmygtk/lemoa) when first exploring the idea, and neither app was close to usable. Didn't see they started on a Rust rewrite & name change.
5 months since last commit isn't promising tho.
