  • So I think the issue here is with the US. The evidence disproving the blackmail was in the form of a recorded phone call. In Canada that is perfectly legal but in the US there needs to be consent or it’s inadmissible in court.

    I’d provide links but I don’t have time at the moment and honestly don’t want to go back to Reddit to find them but the main post was on the Apollo subreddit. If it still exists it shouldn’t be difficult to find. It even included full downloads of the phone call.

    Edit: worth saying I don’t believe the creator of Apollo intends to sue so this is all hypothetical on our behalf.


  • I can understand why a lot of people would want to just move on but Reddit lost me entirely when spez accused the creator of Apollo of trying to blackmail him.

    It was proven false then spez doubled-down on the lie. That, in my opinion, is much worse than the API changes because 1 is a company’s choice, no matter how bad, and the other may as well be a crime.

    That massive red flag should be impossible to ignore.





  • Gotcha, I think more or less I already understood that much. I meant more so how do they (lemmy.world vs lemm.ee specifically) differentiate from one another?

    Is it simply the instances they federate with or is it the ones they block? Is there a “goal” for them worth considering when picking one? I only picked lemmy.world because it was the most popular. Saw that OP is from lemm.ee so thought I’d ask this here.

    So for example: I’m somewhat interested in seeing how things go when threads users get included in the fediverse. I saw a post from lemm.ee basically saying they were considering it while another preemptively blocked them.

    Sorry if this is too specific lol.
