So my understanding is Reddit, or specifically u/spez, tried to claim that the Apollo developer was blackmailing them over the entire API pricing debacle. The Apollo developer posted the audio and transcript of the call with Reddit showing they were lying. Now they’ve claimed his App is poorly developed and making wasteful amounts of API calls- so now he’s posted a large swath of code online to disprove that also.
There was a call between Steve Huffman aka spez and Apollo developer. Apollo developer is in Canada so he recorded the call. Spez lied how Apollo dev threatened him, and Apollo dev released the call recording.
What? Who lied about what? Can you expand on this, I have no idea what it means other than knowing Apollo is probably referring to the Reddit app.
sorry duud I’m using jerboa and didn’t get a notification for this, looks like people have already clarified below though

Apollo dev must understand that Lemmy is slowly gaining ground. He could build an instance or rebuild Apollo into a Lemmy client.
