[–] Freesoftwareenjoyer@lemmy.world 6 points 3 years ago (5 children) Unlike Apollo, will this be Free Software though? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] entropicshart@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago (4 children) Apollo did have a free tier and then a few paid tiers. iirc, (I bought it many years ago), they had a one time Pro purchase that removed any ads and unlocked theming and such, and then the Ultimate which was a subscription to cover server costs of push notifications (although it did eventually end up having more features locked behind it). While I personally did not go for the Ultimate subscription (didn’t really need the push notifications), I gladly paid for the Pro as it was well worth it IMO. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] WaterSword@lemmy.world 5 points 3 years ago (1 child) I think they meant Free as in Open Source permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] Freesoftwareenjoyer@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago It's not exactly the same. The Free Software movement is about user freedom.

Like we can with Lemmy. permalink fedilink source parent
