I decided a while ago that I don’t think his complaints are a big deal to me, especially because he said he had no plans to develop a lemmy client of his own, which I would have happily supported.
After his experience with Reddit, I would have thought he would support anything that helped users leave the platform, and if that transition is made easier by a very similar app that doesn’t compete with anything he makes, why complain?
That’s just my take on it, others can feel differently.
I would have probably dropped lemmy because I couldn’t find a client that I liked until I came across the early versions of voyager/wefwef.
Largely my opinion on the matter. He made such a good product that it almost kept me from switching to Android. I see Voyager as a continuation of and an homage to his good work.
