Could the RIF app be repurposed to support Lemmy? (lemmy.world)

Could RIF become LIF if it was retooled to show posts from Lemmy instead? Or are the websites so different that the only thing which could be repurposed is the UI?

It could perhaps be but the developer is focusing on an app for Tildes, which is another site conceptually similar to reddit and to this.

Kinda strange that they link to lemmy in their good bye but are making a Tildes app. If I heard correctly Tildes is invite only.

If they're all working on that App instead then it might mean that they recognize that Lemmy is not a viable option to handle the traffic and organization required to replace something on the scale the size of Reddit.
