Is anyone working on a Lemmy client for Emacs? (lemmy.sdf.org)

The lack of keyboard interface on Lemmy is killing me, but really what I want is a good client in Emacs. However, it's beyond my Elisp to design and start such a project, but I could probably help. Anyone on it?

thanks for the link. so https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/src/api_routes_http.rs shows the paths and params, i tried them in a rest client and it's no too hard to follow.

the mastodon.el http layer isn't great, but it could be v quickly adapted for this case.

Thanks, yes that's a more useful source than my one.

https://codeberg.org/martianh/lem has some basics, functions returning plain JSON. i didn't do any auth, but if its oauth and so similar to mastodon.el, we cd also just move its auth code into the fedi.el library. and fedi-http.el is already set up to handle auth tokens.

discovering lemmy's query parameters is quite a pain for me, as i don't know rust.
