There’s a great reason for him not to: he can create a paid Lemmy client based on the code. Dude made way too much money on that piece of software to just give it away.
Definitely. I think once he picks himself up after the initial shock of it all, he’d probably give it a go if demand calls for it. He was very passionate about Apollo, I don’t think it’s going to die here and now, nor do I think he wants it to die.
Tapbots went through the same thing with Tweetbot -> Ivory.
It’s just really hard to give up labour of love projects, especially ones that you’ve invested the last decade into.

I love Mlem so far but if Apollo came back converted to Lemmy, i would at least try out both.
