Hm, does Voyager have his blessing for being so similar to Apollo I wonder?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I believe he does not like it

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I donโ€™t believe there is fuck-all he can do about it, unless itโ€™s somehow directly lifting code.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Voyager is built from the ground up as a web app, not even possible to directly lift code from Apollo

Does it need it? AFAIK, you canโ€™t copyright a design.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

You canโ€™t copyright the underlying idea. You can copyright the specific expression of that idea.

Pretty sure that's exactly what copyright is for, actually
