Is it real? Is it maintained by the same developer as Infinity For Reddit?
you know, you can block ads on Android. add as many trackers as you want, NextDNS will just sinkhole them 🤷♂️ it works just like PiHole. Adguard is good too. no need for any subscription.
Yeah, tried sync since that was my reddit app of choice but the ads and tracking just forced me to uninstall it. Trying thunder now and it seems pretty good
There’s no tracking in Sync
There is
Oh, my bad. I just saw this on the play store and figured it did.
Sync’s ads can be turned off by paying a small fee.
Infinity for Lemmy was developed?
Mr Bazsalanszky forked it and is being developed now

Thank you! Just installed the APK. I was a sync pro user but the way the dev is handling Lemmy is disappointing with the ads, tracking and subscription only.
Also this
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Oh thanks. I like Infinity I’ll follow it.
Summit has gotten really good too, and has infinite scrolling and edge-to-edge display.
I don’t really get the drive towards Sync. Sure, it’s familiar, but lots of better options out there.
I agree. Having tried almost all lemmy apps on Android, my favorite so far are Summit and Sync.
Hard disagree, every other Lemmy app feels sloppy and doesn’t work half the time. Sync ftw
You should try Summit - after tweaking for 5 minutes it’s what I wish Sync would look like. Aesthetically it’s awesome!!
Sync still wins based on functionality and ljdawson’s tendency to make sure everything works as intended, but I like the look of Summit more.
Yeah, Summit is a standout.
Just waiting for inbox support to be released to use it as my daily (already implemented, just needs an apk built).
Yes me too, also I feel infinity is bit slow to display all the posts, hopefully fill be fixed soon
It will. There has been a commit with a more experimental loading system, but apparently it isn’t completely ready yet and breaks images.
Infinity was my fav for Reddit, def would love to try a Lemmy alternative
Ok now I see the reason for the post, why I didn’t see this before?
The only one thing that I missed from reddit was Infinity, now I feel complete.
Thanks! I’ll prob wait till a non-early access version releases, pretty happy with Voyager for now
Apologies in advance for the dumb question, but it’s not yet ready for download right? Or am I missing something?
Go to releases. This is in the bar where you also find the issues
Or use Obtainium to automatically install and update it.
Edit: Updates the link
Oh my God, thank you so much!! Responding on Infinity now.
I’m github illiterate but I loved Infinity so this is huge for me!
Just realized it’s not even github so I may be illiterate in more ways than I thought.
sad /kbin noises
The API will come soon! (seriously its being worked on if you don’t know lol)
Whether we’ll be using Sync when time comes is another thing lol.

Hang in there 🤞
Imagine Apollo for Lemmy 😮💨
Have you heard of wefwef? It’s basically Apollo for Lemmy.
Link to a Reddit post about it, quickest I could find in short order at work:
https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14lr2n4/wefwef_is_an_apollo_like_web_app_for_lemmy/
Yes and big fan as well even hosted it on my instance
good job on having india’s first general instance (ig?)
Seriously good by any measure, and fantastic for a webapp. Smoother and more native-feeling than a lot of actual native apps.
It’s called Voyager now.
Thanks, I didn’t realize that. My icon still says wefwef.
For the PWA you’ll have to remove and re-add it to get the updated name and icon, if you want them. Not required by any means though
Thanks that worked!, I feel like I preferred the old icon though :/ I’ll get used to the new one I guess.
Is it? I got it before it was on App Store, so it still says wefwef. Should I go get Voyager because one day updates won’t transfer over? Or am I good, and super duper cool cus I got OG Voyager?
Hopefully the dev changes his mind about not creating an app for lemmy
i’m using memmy (iOs) ! works very good, and it feels nostalgic since they tried their best to… be inspired by apollo 😄
They have added the blue jump button. It makes it hard to upvote comments at the bottom, but love that it is there.
You can hide the button, but my favourite way to upvote comments/posts is by swiping a bit to the right!
And if you deep-swipe to the right it will downvote.
You can hide it in settings—>appearance
My gf installed that one yesterday, but I think it does not have an option to mark as read posts while you scroll, hide read posts?
I couldn’t even see if the read posts were dimmed.
All “hide read posts” options are here!
In Settings -> Content -> Hide Read Posts .
edit: to clarify, i have the 0.5 version. i’ll update to 0.5.1 now.
It does in TestFlight. In fact, it has several options for marking read and works great.
Wait, so the App store version is just a dumbed one version?
No, it’s just behind the dev builds. Lots of new features have been delivered lately and will be pushed to the App Store soon.
Good to know, thanks.
I love Memmy for Lemmy!
Yeah, it’s called Voyager, and it doesn’t even have the Pixel Pals or pop-ups that ruined Apollo!
That’s Voyager.
That’s Voyager.
Great… Now I get to look forward to a trip back from the delta quadrant.
Which is also coming for Android!
i’d love a native version since brave keeps resetting voyager every 2 or 3 days
Just keep waiting mate!
💪
Yeah no, Apollo was native, Vogager isn’t
Native already incoming and PWA works awesome.
except it’s not, because Voyager is React and comes with all the baggage that using React brings.
Native clients all the way.
Works great as PWA, and Voyager is already coming native.
Thunder! I run the ipa sideloaded. Gets weekly or so updates, very active development.
Thunder keeps crashing for me. I switched to Connect today. We’ll see how it goes.
Interesting. I haven’t come across any ads yet.
I see an empty card for ads, I thought my adblockers blocked the actual content of the ads.
I see that too but it’s still empty without any ad blockers, at least for now.
Edit: the ads are there now lol
Do you have adguard or pihole or another DNS blocker? If so, I don’t think you’ll see ads. At least not yet.
Nope, nothing like that.
Boost supremacy
Is it available?
Currently in development. Using Voyager until it’s released
Are people not using Memmy?
I can’t keep up with all the apps anymore.
Mommy is iOS exclusive
Not my mommy, she’s on Android But yeah, that is an iPhone exclusive app
deleted by creator
Of course she is. Why would mommy ever raise a worthless android peon?
Infinity won’t let me log in. So far I’m really liking Sync. And I’m completely fine with a subscription at it’s current price. I’m happy to support devs. 8 don’t like working for free. Not sure why they should have to. And so it’s either ads or subscriptions. Pick your poison.
And so it’s either ads or subscriptions. Pick your poison.
Please think really hard for a moment and try to consider whether there are more ways to purchase something than by subscription or ad support.
There would be a lifetime one time payment option coming up.
He’s talking about tiping
Okay. But I feel one time purchase is a good option
That is actually what I was referring to, yes. It is a much better option than a subscription.
No I wasn’t. I was talking about a one-time purchase, which is the default option for most products in existence.
OK.
One time payments would be great, but the devs make a lot more from subscriptions. You don’t see services like Netflix or Hulu offering one time payments options. As a consumer, I love it, but the devs might not be able to sustain the app from that model. I’d be interested if you have any other ideas though.
Netflix and Hulu, you’re paying for content. Completely different.
You’ve moved the goalposts. First, you said this:
I’m happy to support devs. 8 don’t like working for free. Not sure why they should have to. And so it’s either ads or subscriptions.
In other words, if you don’t pay a subscription or see ads, the developer gets no money at all. You’re using the app “for free.”
Now you’re saying that it’s not “for free,” just not enough to make a living. And what’s more, you’re using a mere suspicion to justify your very confident insistence that we need to “pick our poison,” and that a one-time purchase is just not an option.
Basically, my point is that you need to choose what point you want to make and stick with it, because your argument has changed dramatically in the course of just two comments.
Yes the app is really well made
