Since many of us are trying to avoid giving reddit any traffic, this space can be used to discuss Apollo, our dreams of seeing it join the Fediverse, and to give our appreciation to @christianselig@mastodon.social for his incredible work.

I have mentioned it before and got no answer on the Apollo Reddit board
Someone did tell me that he thinks Lemmy is too new and would like to see where it goes as a platform. That’s here-say though
keeping the hope alive
The things is... having Christian sign on and port Apollo over would be a pretty good way to ensure Lemmy's survival.
While I agree I think he needs time to mourn the loss of his nine year old project. Just my 2 cents
He needs to seriously consider his next professional move. His entire lifeline was kicked out from under him.
Lemmy is too small for him to reasonably capitalize on. So I'm not surprised he is in a wait-and-see mode on that one.
While lemmy may grow, I can't see a way for him to make money from it.
Same way he made money from Apollo. User signups and ads. Would require a lot of growing though...
Why use a client that costs money though
Lots of people chose to do so on Reddit, so why not here?
