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.
Based on this https://reddthat.com/post/8711097 I don’t think he has any interest in Lemmy
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.
You're right on all counts. It really is a tribute to Apollo's design, and I hope he sees it that way someday.
While I'd be exasperated, I'd like to think that I'd also be mature enough to realize that Voyager simply does what I didn't want to do. I'd like to think that I wouldn't be pissy about it. I might be wrong, but I'd like to think it.
100% this
He was also the voice of the fight against the API changes, which I’m sure took a toll too. His reputation was dragged through the mud and wild accusations thrown his way. He probably wants nothing to do with app dev, let alone app dev for a Reddit clone.
What makes you think he's upset?
Also this comment.
I don’t think he is planning on making a big deal out of it or anything, but he does clearly not really like it.
Interesting. I could see him getting upset if it was monetized but I agree that it makes no sense when he has expressed zero interest in doing it himself.
He needs to do his business or kindly remove his cheeks from the throne. I'm disappointed with his comments even though they don't concern me in the least. I don't think i rver got my lifetime/platinum fee back, be calling Apple soon to get that cleared up if it isn't too late
Edit: i needed an extra $40 so this works out perfectly
