ah man - I think I'll miss Infinity more than Reddit.... Infinity for Lemmy - when?

How am I supposed to install this thing?

Edit: it's probably in development.

A sad day. I enjoyed Infinity a lot.

Meh, Slide was better for me but got discontinued on the way. Not that it matters anymore now.

I'm getting error 429 with Slide, I guess it's time to move on from reddit

Infinity was Reddit to me. I never used anything else. I'm kind of sorry for losing it, but the community isn't the same anymore. I'll stay on Lemmy because I enjoy it and believe in the idea.
Hope someone has the time and skills to port it to Lemmy.

Said goodbye to infinity myself this week. Super sad because I've used infinity daily for a number of years now....

I deleted my 13 year old 50K karma account today.

Kinda sad but there is no way I could go back after how they’ve been treating not only 3rd party app users and developers but more recently the unpaid mods who kept the site great.

Joey will be missed. Connect will be welcomed!

If you want to continue using infinity, you can compile the app with your own free API key. Someone made a Google colab script to automate the process:

Super cool that you can do that. Thanks for sharing....

I haven't updated my Infinity app in a while, somehow it seems to still be working fine? It's kinda weird
