The Apollo dev banned and removed all my comments suggesting Lemmy as an alternative to reddit.

I usually don't get too salty about these things, but that seemed uncalled for, especially since I'm on their side.

They probably have a blanket ban on promoting competing Reddit clients, and didn't bother to figure out what Lemmy was.

Exactly. There's a note that says "Self-promo -- Lemmy" right in the posted screen cap.

Which is (technically) true.

Even so, that's lame behaviour. I understand deleting comments if they are promoting their app nonstop, but to silence people you think are just mentioning an alternative app is crazy.

Perhaps, although I was pretty clear in that thread that lemmy is a reddit replacement, not an apollo one.
