Voyager for lemmy is now on F-droid! You don't need to setup a third party repo as its in the main repo

Edit: I'll just stick to Jeroba for now as the Voyager UI is painful for me personally

Man I was looking for it there earlier today but ended up getting it from the play store.

I guess it didn't help that I was searching for Eternity, not Voyager. What's the scoop with the name?

Edit: I'm confused. I guess they're different.

Eternity isn't voyager. They are separate apps

Eternity used to be called Infinity, because that is what the FOSS Reddit client that it is forked from was called.

Voyager used to be called wefwef for god knows why

Two completely different projects.

Thanks. I didn't use them when they were Reddit apps, and the names are all so similar I got confused.

Eternity is available via the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo.

It's also available on play store now

I personally would avoid the IzzyOnDroid as it isn't well filtered and opens your device up to potential security and privacy issues

Been using Izzy apps for years. Never had a problem.

That's your choice. The problem is that many app developers are taking the lazy way out instead of proper F-droid.
