A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

He actually addressed it in the Verge article linked in this thread. He's afraid of Lemmy or Kbin dying off and having to deal with the emotional toll of the app dying all over again. As a developer, I totally get that concern. He has put so much of his time into Apollo just to see it die, I wouldn't want to risk that again.
As much as i hate the idea of a community relying on one company, I saw someone suggest that Apple buy Apollo and get into social. It’s not a TERRIBLE idea. I feel icky wishing for it though.
As if they wouldn't enshitify it eventually
