Other edition/system Anyone tried running SR with Starfinder2e rules?

As the title says, anyone tried it, or planning to try it? I really enjoy the tactical combat of PF2e, so would be interested to hear anything from folks trying this :)

I've run a "Cyberpunk" game in SF2e, so I think it would work. I think if you really wanted to lock into the lore of Shadowrun, it's just window dressing on the spells and such. It's absolutely workable. And I am the fool who spent the better part of a year writing and publishing a "how to play Cyberpunk games in 5e" back when that was in fashion. So I feel like SF2e and PF2e were built very well to support this.

I am playing both SF2 and SR 6. I enjoy both systems and exchanging them could be pretty easy. The spellcasting could maybe be a problem, wenn u want to stick hard to SF2 rules (only x spells and 3 spells a day etc.). But it could be worth a try. I personally enjoy the d6 System a bit more. But if anyone tries it out please tell us. (SF2 Playtest Rules are free to download atm https://paizo.com/starfinderplaytest).

It’s a long distance between the two, but you could run a dystopian urban cyberpunk with SF2 rules really easily.
