Question about Lemmy front-end and feddit.de (lemmy.ml)

feddit.de has been giving "Server error" for some time but I read that the server is still working when using a Lemmy app. Tried the Photon front-end today and choosing feddit.de as instance.

Example post from All : https://phtn.app/post/feddit.de/12459995
Example (German) post from Local, 3 hours ago : https://phtn.app/post/feddit.de/12475331

My question (I'm just curious, I have no account on feddit.de) is : Can an alternative front-end on their server co-exist with the other server software ? I guess it would be a matter of installing Photon and then point nginx configuration to that. Or am I missing something crucial ?

Unfortunately the feddit.de server has been broken for quite a while and we have trouble contacting the admin.

There is a matrix channel where the admin is answering from time to time. But he is currently very occupied with real life stuff. And he is also the backup admin, as the original admin is currently on a workation on the other side of the globe and seems to be unreachable…

Oh, that explains it.
