I guess it was finite after all.

Just saying, dev... if you're reading this.

Could've been you, mate.

Just sayin...

welp, without infinity i don't even remember my reddit username. so that's that then, thanks for all the fish!

I think that even third party clients that survived the APIcalypse will slowly bleed to death. In that light, Eternity for Lemmy was a great idea.

Weren't they switching to a subscription model? I know they pushed back the release of this new version but apparently Spez didn't feel like giving more free API access in the meantime. Or maybe the Infinity devs gave up on Reddit. Who knows.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

It switched to a subscription model. When you launch the app now it asks what tier you want to be part of per month

[โ€“] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

And with that my reddit consumption is restricted to desktop only (as long as old reddit works)

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

So long, old friend.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

The dev just deleted the old API key according to recent comments on Reddit.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Infinity was one of the best mobile Reddit apps I've ever used. Now the only thing keeping me on Reddit still is the RES extension. When that will eventually stop working too or Reddit decides to get rid of old Reddit, I'll be deleting my account.

Luckily, there is an Infinity fork for Lemmy.

You can make your own infinity app using your reddit API, just follow this guide

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

Yeah I just did it and it works. Somehow I can also see NSFW posts

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

For me the subscription page opens when I open Infinity, so their probably rolling that out bit for bit. Don't know about the F-Droid though, might take longer till it comes up there as well.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

the fdroid version works fine for me.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Doesn't work for me. API key was revoked.

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

The F-Droid version works for me as well. So far, at least.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Yes faced just now.

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

Long live Infinity for Lemmy!

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

And I loved K*****g it!
