Can't really make apps for a site that doesn't have an API. They did announce recently that Kbin's API is nearly done, so soon there'll be a flood of Kbin apps as well, and support for Kbin in all of the Lemmy apps too

and support for Kbin in all of the Lemmy apps

Very much doubt. I'm sure many will but not all. The API isn't identical so they'd have to commit to maintaining both.

Yeah I suppose not all of them will want to commit to supporting Kbin, but some definitely will. Honestly though, so long as it's possible to search for and subscribe to Kbin magazines from Lemmy, that's all I really care about.

If nothing else, the Sync developer said he'd do it.

Memmy dev said they plan to as well but “not within this year” if I recall correctly.

Cool. Memmy is the best, but what is the purpose of a native kbin integration if it’s already federated? Are we able to view and not post or comment?

[-] sliels@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

nice, that's the one I've been hoping for the most!

Came here to say that.. Take your upvote, good sir..

I'm so so looking forward to sync, and it gives me a lot of hope seeing all of these apps and fancy UI's, it's reassuring that the fediverse is here to stay and will continue to grow
