I’d be curious to know what the battery drain difference between native and third party apps might be. I mainly use the native reminders/weather/battery widgets, but I wouldn’t be able to tell that these have had any noticeable impact on my battery life.
My family used to put in hundreds of hours into Civilization 2 and once we were a little older we played Red Alert spending even more time building maps for ourselves to play. We could never figure out how to set up a LAN growing up, but it was a lot of fun all the same.
My point is that the blueprint of the original app is there whether or not it was rebuilt from scratch. The developer may have rewritten the app themselves, but at the end of the day we’re essentially using Apollo for Lemmy hence the reference.
Voyager might be maintained by a single person, but let’s not fool ourselves who created it. Voyager is a direct clone of Christian Selig’s Apollo for Reddit.
I love Voyager as much as the next Lemming, but I’ll be damned if credit isn’t given where credit is due.
