Since many of us are trying to avoid giving reddit any traffic, this space can be used to discuss Apollo, our dreams of seeing it join the Fediverse, and to give our appreciation to @[email protected] for his incredible work.
Apollo was updated on the AppStore today.
1.15.15 Adds an option to download all wallpapers rather than having to do it individually. Also adds an option to sign up to be notified for my Next Thing™!>>
I really hope Christian has had a change of heart and considers a Lemmy app.
I’m sad he didn’t use Apollo’s platform to advertise Lemmy (or kbin or any other platform). He had an attentive follower base with his app. Now most people deleted it (I still have it in a folder, I can resolve myself to delete it). Even if he wasn’t making a new app he could have guided some users to a better place.
Well, maybe he just doesn't know what Lemmy is or how cool it is, so he isn't confident to "guide people" somewhere else, although this would be hard to believe since I guess he is a Mastodon user.
It is a shame for sure, especially since many people tried to talk to him about the Fediverse, and even about Voyager app formerly Wefwef (I am glad for this PWA, even when I was not an Apollo user anymore because of Android).
Praying to the nerd gods he makes a Lemmy app.
I’m cautiously optimistic that this means he is working on a Lemmy app of some sort. Christian, if you are out there lurking you have my sword!
He posts on Mastadon here and there. Clearly working on something…will be exciting to see what it is. Could be anything
