What caused me to just delete the app and my account is the post by the Apollo creator today. When you see it all put together, it’s really shameful how poorly the community, moderators, and devs are treated. It was a huge post and on popular
It’s a very long image, so I’m not sure how readable it’ll be, but I used Apollo’s awesome “share as image” feature to do this (hoping it’ll be implemented in one of the Lemmy iOS apps soon).
May also have to do with reddit users wondering why all their favorite subs are now full of pictures of John Oliver and Wales (which are newer acts of protest).

Too long, it’s a bit of an essay. Interesting read though.
Yeah that poor Apollo dev who was making half a million dollars a year for 10 years. Won’t someone think of the little guy for once?
