This is from a couple of months ago but it came up after my previous post. It does seem like he doesn’t really like Voyager, but oh well.

I am confused. Didn't he release the Apollo design specifications after the APIcalypse. People were always going to release copycat apps using that.

Edit : Seems I was wrong

Can you share a link to his Apollo design specifications? I seem to have missed that

It seems I was wrong. I remember reading somewhere that he would do this but I can find anywhere where he has said or done it

He was asked if he would open source the project but from what I can tell he said no. It's not like it was obligatory for him to do that anyways, but when you read some of the comments in the other thread, it feels like almost a demand coming from the community rather than an ask.

I was talking more about the UI specifications and not about open sourcing the entire app. In any case it seems I was wrong because I could find nothing relating to Christian sharing his code or specification relating to apollo's UI.

This makes me respect @[email protected] even more because he was able to create an app pretty similar to Apollo(UI wise) by writing everything from scratch
