Apollo Recognition (lemmy.world)

Given the strong genetic link between wefwef and Apollo, I think it would be great to acknowledge and describe the origins of wefwef’s UX design. In a few months, there will (hopefully) be new signups who never used Reddit, and never had the opportunity to use the awesome piece of software Christian developed over the better part of a decade. I’d like to see the legacy and history of Apollo live on, even if it’s just that iconic icon and a few sentences.

Maybe we could have an “Ode to Apollo” somewhere under the settings menu?

This would be a really nice gesture. I never thought I’d miss an app as much as I do Apollo. So tragic.

Same. I was compelled to pick up a t-shirt recently as a gesture of thanks.

I’ve accidentally opened it probably 15 times since the shut down

Just replace the Apollo icon with Wefwef and you’ll open it instead.

Sometimes I forget I’m no longer using Reddit. It was such a smooth transition.
