"I just released a really important Apollo update that adds the ability for users with remaining subscription time left to decline an automatic refund. Devs pay refunds out of pocket, and this will be about $250K, so I thank you for your consideration. ❤️ Also, this update includes an amazing "Goodbye Apollo Wallpaper Set” for your phone, tablet, or desktop, created by outrageously talented Apollo icon designers. You can unlock the pack with a donation that helps with refund costs. 🙂"

RIP. kinda sad he didn't turn it into a lemmy/kbin client.

There's a client named Artemis under development that's heavily inspired by Apollo, don't know if any devs are crossing over though.

There is also this awesome web app

https://wefwef.app

Doesn't seem to work with kbin.social. Artemis is the only one I've heard of so far that is actually supporting kbin and it's not ready yet. ;n;

Thunder is the most polished iOS app I’ve found so far, but I like the direction mlem and memmy are headed more.

It might happen, I suppose, but he may be wanting to hedge his bets. Lemmy/kbin don't have the same userbase (yet) and that userbase is an input into what kind of revenue is available for an app author.

Apollo seems incredibly smart. I'm sure this is the right answer. I hope july 1st is wild and we get more users
