Apollo has been one of my most used apps the past couple years… it’ll be sad saying goodbye.

Christian would have an opportunity to use much of the Apollo code and start over as a lemmy client. It’s too bad the sting is so fresh in his mind. He has built a reputation of a great app and would easily be able to start a small purchase charge for the app and then add features behind a small paywall.
I think that would be great! I’m sure it’s more difficult than it seems, though, to port over the entire backend to Lemmy, especially with its decentralized nature. Also I’m sure Christian is a bit burnt out after the Reddit fiasco, so I can’t fault him for taking a breather.
I’d be in favour of adapting Apollo (or it’s successor) to use Lemmy instead. I’d move on from Reddit without a care in the world, the lack of a strong mobile client is the only downside to Lemmy right now, I’m enjoying the community here.
Even a super cut-down App that only had options to read/post/comment/moderate would be awesome, but even that is probably months of work away and he no-doubt needs a vacation from the BS right now.
