Might take a jab at working on that export/import feature for the backend this summer. It's quite a crucial feature and with the new influx of users, it would definitely be a nice thing to squash.
That would be greatly appreciated by many, I am sure. Good luck :)
Thank you :)
That would be amazing!
Have you contributed other stuff to Lemmy? How hard is Rust to learn? I love the idea of this project and it seems like a great FOSS to contribute to, but I don't know Rust and I haven't contributed to open source before.
Some minor stuff quite a while back.
Rust may be a bit hard at first, but once you understand it, it's quite pleasant, in my opinion. Perhaps this is a good opportunity for you to take a shot at learning the language ;)
I recommend starting to look at the Rust book
It does sound like a great way to begin learning. I'll start with the book then maybe find a small, easy issue. Thanks for the recommendation!
