The Apollo dev banned and removed all my comments suggesting Lemmy as an alternative to reddit. (lemmy.ml)

I usually don't get too salty about these things, but that seemed uncalled for, especially since I'm on their side.

I used Apollo for many years. Stopped using it two years ago because a known bug related to when scrolling feed suddenly you get a error that there is no more content. A lot of users reported it and what dev only does to to make more decorative content to buy. The dev was really good improving the app but I don’t know what happened there around years ago.

That problem was apparently an issue with the Reddit API. The dev tried to post the explanation any time the issue was reported because there was allegedly nothing he could do.

If true, totally seems like an API worth their asking price! /s
