can Apollo just switch to supporting Lemmy.ml? That would be nice their UI kinda sucks at the moment.

  Probably not financially viable to do so.

    Depends, could be a cart leading a horse situation. As in: Maybe Lemmy has bad UX which is why it craters adoption. Spending some resources on an Apollo version with Lemmy support sounds like a good idea assuming the dev time can be recouped. Since Apollo is a paid app I think there's a more direct path to financial relevance than number of eyes in ads. :)

  You mean Lemmy in general? Lemmy.ml is just one of many Lemmy servers. Though there's some discussion coming up on how things are going in Lemmy regarding anything surrounding any criticism of China or Russia. So far, there's been attempts to spin up new servers to mitigate issues on lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml while others are looking to Kbin which also federates with Lemmy but uses separate software.

  Tapbots building a good app for Mastodon after Tweetbot got killed didn't suddenly push Mastodon into a top-tier social network.

    No, but great third party apps for Mastodon definitely keep me using Mastodon more than I was with the official app. I'm sure it's a similar story for many others.

  In the thread he said he rather let it die because he is already tired.
