I’m curious how Voyager for Lemmy is funded. Or is it just community driven so the workload and potential costs are spread out far enough that nobody is footing the bill all by themselves?

Voyager is created by a single person - Alexander Harding. Github lists him as the main contributor, with 58 other people helping. You can sponsor the project on GitHub, Liberapay or Patronite.
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.
AFAIK the Apollo source code was never open sourced. So while the UX is clearly a successor to Apollo, the code was built from the ground up.
A spiritual successor, if you will.
