Yes, Reddit is all just user content, so I do not feel too bad for them, however it is true that Reddit’s free service in the form of their API made Christian potentially millions. However I do feel like there was a better compromise rather than what ended up happening.
This week I'm having @christianselig back on the show to give @apolloapp a Post-Mortem, rehash Third Party APIs, and talk about our favorite Pals.
Have any questions for Christian? Let us know.
Voyager will never be as good as Apollo, due to the fact that it is a web app, and Apollo was a native iOS App coded in Swift. Don’t get me wrong, I use Voyager and like it, but this is the truth of the matter. It can get close, but it just can’t do what Apollo could.
