83 0 ReplyIt's going to re-launch soon
78 0 ReplyAnd the Apollo developer is apparently consulting on the mobile experience in one last “fuck you” to Reddit.
61 0 ReplyLol, if they don't blunder it i might actually check it out here and there just as a fuck you to reddit
21 0 ReplyCuriosity and nostalgia will definitely get me to check it out. I enjoyed digg before the v4 explosion that drove everyone to reddit.

Apollo was like the main one right? I was a rif user. Apollo's dev is the one that spez literally lied about?
18 0 ReplyApollo was mostly a one man band, although I think Christian occasionally had someone helping out with services. The client side was basically all him.
And yeah, Christian posted all of Spez’s comms and showed that Spez was lying to the community.

It died so hard it underflowed and came back to life. Poorly most likely.

3 0 ReplyReally? Apollo was the best client, kinda miss it and the reddit that used to be.

Yeah, I'm sad the developer didn't make a fork for Lemmy.
But Voyager has a similar user experience and it's for Lemmy.
