All fair points, i just felt it was shitty for him to act like nobody or fans shouldn't recreate what he got us all hooked on and that he had some sort of expectation of commerical purity that we were violating by not letting Apollo die the way he dictated

Not that I expected him to be able to sell it or anything but he could have taken a good, long, relaxing vacation and taken the strongest stand against the company that fucked him over and needed a good whooping by following the other top Reddit 3rd party apps that didn't want to deal with Reddit's bullshit new API terms and redone Apollo for Lemmy like Voyager did and I am eternally grateful for having done. Reminds me I need to donate this month to the one who actually made it possible and is an absolute champ
