First comment from Infinity for Lemmy!

Infinity was my app of choice for like 2ish years, it still works with Reddit atm but when I moved to Lemmy the only real app was Jerboa, and man it was not the same

I delt with it tho, in the hopes that one day Infinity would be for Lemmy

And omg ITS BACK BAYBE

I am way too stocked over a Lemmy app, but man Infinity is lightning fast, super smooth, and beyond customizable! So I won't be needing Jerboa or Liftoff anymore

I am home!

Worth noting it is not affiliated with the original dev. This guy forked it and took the name.

The beauty of open source!

meh, it's a bit shit if the original dev wants to make his own Lemmy app.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The infinity dev literally said to fork it because he has no plans to support lemmy himself.

The original used to be my favourite reddit client, so I'm really happy to see there's a semi-fuctional lemmy fork.

So this means another lemmy app for me to install. I'm still switching between apps

I JUST realised that the app icon is NOT a mole with red glasses looking up from a hole in the ground. Huh.

I am officially using it to post this, and I gotta say... I don't miss Reddit, but I did miss Infinity. I just didn't realize how much until now.

I am too, and new to Infinity overall. I was patiently awaiting Sync but became sadly disappointed with how aggressive it was monetized. Infinity does what I need:

  1. searching for posts over all communities (*and instances!)

  2. inline find function for the comments

  3. preview before commenting

I am simple. Infinity is fast. Go. Lemmy. Go.
