The beauty of lemmy is that it is open source. Anyone knowing a bit of rust and/or typescript can contribute. I'm sure multilemmies will be implemented sooner rather than later.

Though, although rust is a beloved language, it's hard to get into. A backend in typescript or python would attract a lot more developers just based on the fact that these are higher level languages. Performance would take too much of a hit though.
