Apollo isn’t a Reddit competitor, you’d have to build out the whole Reddit backend for it to talk to. Christian understandably said he’s not interested in working on that himself. If he open sourced the client and it could be forked to work with a Reddit competitor that’d be amazing, but I’m not sure if he plans to open source that.

Fair, however I think if we just assume that the community is what is important then we can bootstrap into a new "clean" architecture - but that's going to take leadership and someone with cash to spin everything up over the weekend basically.

I think it's doable, but we need a leader to step up.
