    Leaving Reddit. Hello Fediverse! I will be much more active in posting and commenting on the Fediverse than I was before on Reddit.

      Relay will still work for now. The developer stated they will be doing a subscription model soon. It’s odd how they were able to do this but not Apollo.

        It’s not that they weren’t able to, but refused out of principle. Users would suddenly have to pay way more than necessary for less content. Which is exactly what users of Relay will do.

    I didn’t think infinity would be finite but tomorrow we’ll reach the end of Infinity for sure

      One of the best apps for sure! If you want to keep using Infinity, you can build the app with your private API-key following this guide. Also there’s a fork of Infinity which supposedly makes it compatible with Lemmy, but I haven’t tried that one yet.

        The dev said he won’t migrate to Lemmy because he doesn’t use it.

          Really? Well, now I’m a bit dissappointed XD

          But it’s not a problem if he won’t use it, I hope someone makes a fork to support Lemmy then.

      I will miss that little app for sure. I wonder how many kilometers i scrolled with it.

        WTF! i been on lemmy for 2 weeks and this is my first time seeing this! Thanks

        e: This is friggin amazing!

        • It’s insane because the dev has only been working on this for three weeks. And it’s the best progressive web app I’ve ever seen. Almost feels native on my iPhone other than the lack of haptic feedback.

            I’m just curious; why is it a web app and not something you can download? The black bar in the bottom of the screen makes it feel weird, also the fact that upvote/downvote colors are reversed. Other than that, it soothens my withdrawals from Apollo, and I think I’ll be using it a fair amount alongside Memmy (which feels nice, it’s not a 100% carbon copy, but familiar)

              Click the share button and save it your home screen it’ll save and operate as an app. It’s a web app just a new build option that makes it easier for something to be accessible in multiple ways.

        Holy shit, the developer has put some serious work in. I didn’t know web apps could be that good. There’s some insane attention to detail going on here

        Wow! It really does feel very similar to Apollo. It will undoubtedly make the transition easier.

        Thanks!

          Check out Memmy if you haven’t already. It’s the best IOS Lemmy app I’ve tried by far, and really reminds me of Apollo.

          This web app is really nice too though. It’s cool that we’re getting such good options.

        Incredible, and the dev keeps updating it like twice a day.

        I’m also running a copy alongside my instance, thelemmy.club at app.thelemmy.club

        I never was really fond of web apps but this is great.

        Wefwef feels like home. I was using Apollo for years and this feels very natural

          That’s the idea, but better because Fediverse>Reddit.

        Damn… I hadn’t been paying attention and thought that was actually exclusively an iOS app when I’d seen it mentioned before… Looks interesting.

          You can use it oN Android and feels ilegal, but ilegally awesome.

          Nah, it’s for everyone.

          And if you save it to your Home Screen as an app it feels really good to use.

            Yes… This is what I learned and the reason for my comment. It looks very interesting as I said. Not bad at all.

    I hope Reddit fully dies off- that site is a cesspool and deserves to meet a fate similar to tumblr & myspace.

      Tumblr? Tf u mean? It’s still doing pretty well, MySpace lost all content posted before 2016 and is now a useless empty husk. Tumblr is just smaller, but still active. This comparison makes no sense.

        Yeah. Hell, a bunch of people just joined tumblr from reddit. There’s a whole reddit refugee tag that was trending for a minute there.

        Eh, its still massively less popular than it used to be before they banned porn, if something similar happens to Reddit, with it becoming a ghosttown in parts of it but still fairly active on larger communities- I’d still consider that a win against them.
