Has any developer ever considered creating a Lemmy app that closely mimics the OFFICIAL Reddit app’s design and functionality?

To be clear, I’m not referring to the excellent work done by former third-party Reddit app developers who’ve transitioned to Lemmy (like Infinity, Sync, etc.).

Instead, I’m talking about an app that specifically recreates the UI/UX of the OFFICIAL Reddit app, but tailored for Lemmy’s federated structure.

While I personally don’t really use Reddit that much, I recognize that many Reddit Users find its interface familiar and easy to navigate.

This familiarity could be a significant advantage in onboarding new users to Lemmy, especially those coming directly from Reddit.

Perhaps name it something like:

LemmyRed

RedLemmy

Lemmit

Leddit

Remmy

Reddy

etc.

Some potential benefits of such an app:

Easier transition for Reddit users moving to Lemmy

Familiar interface for casual users who aren’t as tech-savvy

Potentially wider adoption of Lemmy due to lowered learning curve

I personally believe that this could be an interesting project, but I’ll be honest - I don’t have the time, energy, or technical knowledge to tackle it myself.

I’m curious if any developers have ever considered this idea or would be interested in exploring it.

What are your thoughts on this?

Do you see potential in a Lemmy app that closely mirrors the Official Reddit app’s design?

Are there any developers who might be interested in taking on such a project?
