Fuck Reddit. But honestly I’m less and less invested with each passing day. I re-opened Apollo today and it’s already starting to feel old, foreign. I guess that means Lemmy is home now.

🇬🇧 natively, speak 🇩🇪🇪🇸🇸🇪🇵🇹, learning 🇫🇷! How about everyone else? :D

Cool! I haven’t totally worked out the direction of this one, but I had in mind more of a general linguistic discussion, like talking about the differences between languages, interesting features of them, etc.

This is amazing news. I’m thinking we’ve reached critical mass where it’s going to be self sustaining and worth using.

Class act is a great way to put it. I agree, he’s a credit to indie developers everywhere. And actually his “take the high road” approach is such a contrast with Spez’s unprofessional behaviour, that it just serves to make the latter look even worse.

Thanks, I guess I forgot to link the source!

Yes it’s quite active from what I’ve seen. AOE4 and AOE3 DE are my two main games at the moment and I never have trouble populating a lobby, even at weird hours.

Amen to that, hopefully he’ll have a change of heart! But I understand him wanting to do something new.

[–] sparky 2 points 1 year ago

Agree completely, and fuck spez

Thanks for joining! I hope so too!

Me too, but I think the Reddit and Lemmy APIs are sufficiently different that he would effectively have to rebuild most of the app. I have high hopes for https://github.com/buresdv/Mlem, I'm in the TestFlight, but it's too incomplete to actually use currently. Still, I'll miss Apollo itself far more than Reddit.

Very respectable setup!
