If anyone's looking for a project to do in Rust, Lemmy could really use an Iframely replacement. (github.com)

Iframely is our embed / picture thumbnail fetcher for external sites. But its extremely heavy, unreliable ( crashes a lot ), and doesn't build for ARM.

Hmm, so a service that you send a URL to, via REST request, and then it fetches the thumbnail/content, wraps some HTML around it, and then responds with that to the REST request?

That sounds like a rather big project...

It doesn't need to wrap html, only serve up json.
