    On the one hand, nice jab. Unfair since he wasn’t interested, but get his jollies where he can, I guess.

    On the other, he knew longer than most that Reddit was done. He can pivot to Lemmy at any time.

        Thanks for the link. I didn’t think he’s in the least interested in Lemmy. Unsure why he’s upset that someone else took the ball that he wasn’t interested in and ran with it.

          Think about it. If you’d given so much of yourself over to crafting and honing an app like Apollo over the years and all that happened, happened… would you not be a tad deflated and exasperated?

          I don’t blame him. Let him cool off for about 5 years. He’ll see it as a tribute one day.

          Because there’s a stark difference between “playing ball” as it were, and essentially trying to make an identical ball without permission.
