Yes, not everyone is going to get the news that it's turned from a loss of income into a debt due to the nature. And dare I say there may be some out there who would still consider it as "he knew what he was getting into", although I hope that's a very small percentage.
I think that given how forthcoming Christian's been with this entire situation, if he were in a position where he could not feasibly put up that 250k it would be communicated. It's no small amount of money, sure, but I think he'll be alright. I can't speak for anyone else, but if I was someone with an Apollo sub, I would refuse the refund without even thinking about it. Hopefully a large percentage of subscribed users agree with that sentiment, and in that case the cost should drop substantially.
I feel like certain users are echoing others in terms of the “oh it’s too hard/complicated” - I don’t know, imo not really just sign up, subscribe to your mags of interest which will pull across the fediverse and engage (up/down/comment) as much as you like lol… really not that hard but I guess change is hard for people (but then it’s not really much a seismic change? I don’t know - I guess I like trying new things).
While I don't doubt people's intentions are well, I feel perfectly capable of deciding myself what should be defederated or not. Currently using kbin.social. Any resources for people interested in learning more about this and potentially wanting to host their own instance (which I assume you'd need to, to be able to control this?). Or maybe there are already instances out there that don't defederate and leave it up to the individual?

It only takes one to defederate. Any large instances that stay neutral will eventually be defederated with by other instances, as per the beehaw example recently. So your best option would indeed be to host your own small instance.
It took me a little while to figure out reddit. After migrating from reddit I actually found it easier to pickup this time around. I am sure some people might have some trouble but as long as we make this place welcoming and helpful for new users asking questions people will want to migrate.
11+ years here. A moment of silence, 99% of my redditing was through this app. I feel bad that I only just bought the premium version because I didn't realize just how good it was, but I hope I made up for that. Thank you for your years of service.
The iOS styling is nice, I bet iPhone users would love this. Seems like true black background for OLED users too.
I don't like that tapping on the Posts button doesn't show you posts, it shows you a list of filters for the posts you might want to browse. I'd much prefer it just show me the posts using default or last-used parameters and add a button to change them instead.
This is so sad for me. RIF was the first app for mobile for me. I ended up going with Apollo eventually but why did either of these awesome apps have to die? I can't believe they are willing to throw away everything they promised for money. I won't stand for corporate greed. I used Reddit to fight against that behavior and they literally became the exact thing I hate the most.
I never even heard of reddit when I was introduced to rif. Only reddit I know. I didn't really try others, didn't need to. It was perfectly simple. Thank you and now on to new and better things, hopefully
I wanted to like BR but it lacked so much. Android app was better then ios but i couldn't do basic things that made me reddit the way i wanted to reddit. plus the devs barely answered anything on the sub. Sad to see them go!
