It was doable, but a bit hard to swallow and restrict the app against free users and Christian didn’t want to answer to the whims of Reddit anymore apparently

I understand and can respect that perspective in that case, altho his comments about Voyager are kinda offputting in that context. Like someone continued your legacy in a way you should be smiling upon but it seems like ego and mean-spirit with that guy in this context.

Like, I was super offput by it. Also, I'm sure it was hard for Narwhal too but here we are.

Anyway, to be fair that is encapulated in the "not wanting to be helping or validating what Reddit has become" defense so Imma drop it with predjudice (good way).

Hmm, what did Christian say about voyager?

I don't want to get too much into it since we've had some positive progress but I believe someone asked about it on Mastodon and he was a little bit terse and sour-grapes about it. He could have been a part of Lemmy but he moved on I felt it was a little bit weird he held those feelings simultaneously...

Imma drop it now aha, as long as he keeps it at sour grapes and doesn't start getting sue-y, not that it would help anything but I'm comfortable leaving it at this stalemate :)
