A post to a news story about Apollo shutting down at the end of this month was already made, but I thought that the original post by the Apollo Dev was worth also citing. This is a VERY interesting read, though long. He also has audio recordings of all his dealings with Reddit of late.

I think after having read his write-up I feel a little better about leaving reddit. Hearing about how reddit treated Apollo’s developer just left a sour taste in my mouth.

Same. infuriating seeing a heartless corporation defame a good developer

Yep. Reading his write-up led to me joining Lemmy.
