Selig notes that his app Juno was intended as a fun project, emphasizing his lack of interest in escalating disputes like the previous Reddit controversy. He stated, 'I really enjoyed building Juno, but it was always something I saw as fundamentally a little app I built for fun... I have zero desire to spin this into a massive fight akin to what happened with Reddit years ago.' His desire to avoid drama underscores his perspective on app development.
Christian Selig addressed Google's concerns, stating that Juno operates merely as a web view without significant modifications. He said, 'I don't personally agree with this, as Juno is just a web view, and acts as little more than a browser extension that modifies CSS to make the website and video player look more 'visionOS' like.' This statement highlights the confusion around the app's compliance with YouTube's regulations.
Selig expressed disappointment over the removal of Juno but remains hopeful for its users, reassuring them that those who purchased the app would retain access 'for the time being.' However, he cautions that future updates from YouTube might affect its functionality, stating, 'though there's a chance a future YouTube update could end up bricking it.' This reflects his uncertainty about the app's future persistence.
Despite Juno's removal following complaints regarding trademark violations, Google has yet to release an official YouTube app for Vision Pro. Selig noted, 'Google hasn't made its own YouTube app for Vision Pro, though the company said in February such an app was 'on our roadmap.' His comments suggest a gap in the market that his app sought to fill.
