Thanks for the link. I didn’t think he’s in the least interested in Lemmy. Unsure why he’s upset that someone else took the ball that he wasn’t interested in and ran with it.
Think about it. If you’d given so much of yourself over to crafting and honing an app like Apollo over the years and all that happened, happened… would you not be a tad deflated and exasperated?
I don’t blame him. Let him cool off for about 5 years. He’ll see it as a tribute one day.
You’re right on all counts. It really is a tribute to Apollo’s design, and I hope he sees it that way someday.
While I’d be exasperated, I’d like to think that I’d also be mature enough to realize that Voyager simply does what I didn’t want to do. I’d like to think that I wouldn’t be pissy about it. I might be wrong, but I’d like to think it.
Also this comment.
I don’t think he is planning on making a big deal out of it or anything, but he does clearly not really like it.
Because there’s a stark difference between “playing ball” as it were, and essentially trying to make an identical ball without permission.
the old ball was taken away, a jab is fair, but so was keeping the ball alive.
I think people on this site are a bit too used to open source projects you can just fork and use based on their license. This is not the case here.
All that being said I don’t think Christian is going to take any negative actions against the project; if he was going to, he probably would have done so sooner.
