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.
Please explain what actions he could take?
Unless someone stole his source or assets there is no action to be taken.

But the voyager dev has not seen or used apollo’s code to build voyager. He has done everything from scratch only taking heavy inspiration from Apollo. Christian has helped indirectly by being the one to develop the UI which serves as inspiration but considering that voyager is not a competitor to apollo, in my opinion he has no right to be outraged at the fact that it is a looklike. He is free to not contribute to voyager and it is true that he has already contributed a lot indirectly but him getting angry or upset at the fact that the UI is pretty similar makes no sense to me.
