Hello everyone,

I'm not sure this is the right community for this, but I want to announce my new project: Infinity for Lemmy.

Basically, this is a fork of the Infinity for Reddit application, modified to get it to work with Lemmy.

But I must remind you to temper your expectations as this project is still in its infancy. It has some basic features already in place, but there’s a lot more to be accomplished.

What Infinity for Lemmy Can Currently Do:

β€’	Browse posts
β€’	Handle multiple accounts
β€’	Upvote and downvote posts

What Infinity for Lemmy Cannot Do (Yet):

β€’	Load comments
β€’	Handle subscriptions
β€’	Search for posts, users, or communities
β€’	Write posts or comments
β€’	Send private messages
β€’	And many more

So, while Infinity for Lemmy is in its current state not a feature-rich client, but it’s a promising start.

For those interested, here’s the link to my git repository: https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Infinity-For-Lemmy

I invite everyone to contribute in whatever capacity they can, whether it be through coding, reporting bugs, suggesting features, or even just providing feedback and insights. Let’s shape the future of Infinity for Lemmy together!

I like it. But Infimmity makes me giggle a bit more.

Awesome! Would be possible, in the future, to get it from F-droid and not only the Play Store? Like it was for Infinity!

[–] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 18 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I want to get an F-Droid release first, but I think it's too early for now.

[–] pacjo@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

I think getting it submitted to fdroid would be a lengthy process. As an alternative IzzyOnDroid repository could be considered.

Probably. If not F-Droid, then Obtainium using the releases

[–] sabriy01@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Wow! Infinity for Reddit is the best foss reddit app. Glad to see he made it for Lemmy

[–] hombre_fundido@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

This is amazing! Thank you.

I've been missing Infinity.

[–] sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is this from the original developer or is this a fork from a new developer?

[–] eroc1990@lemmy.parastor.net 34 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a fork from a new developer, though strangely it seems like the ReadMe hasn't been changed and still points back to the original Infinity GitHub repo from Docile-Alligator.

@bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu you may want to consider removing the original owner's content from your Readme on Codeberg, especially if you plan on maintaining this long-term.

Super excited to see it evolve! I used infinity for Reddit for a while. Big bonus for it being open source! Once it gets some more updates it might be my main app again haha

[–] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 11 points 1 year ago (6 children)

UPDATE: I have just released the first alpha version of this project. You can find it here.

You can also use the project link from the post to grab the apk with Obtainium as well.

[–] kluevo@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

As a longtime infinity user, I can't wait to give it a spin!

[–] greendakota99@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

I’m not an Android user but this looks awesome! I love all the apps popping up everywhere for Lemmy and how good they work already!

[–] SatyrSack@lemmy.one 9 points 1 year ago
[–] Blazingflames6073@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (6 children)

Are there any releases yet? I tried looking but I'm not familiar with codeberg. Obtainium can't seem to grab it from the link directly either

That is great! Infinity is my favorite app for reddit and I'm sure it will be great for lemmy also.

[–] victron@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

Thanks for what you're doing, dude. And congratulations on this project.

Ayyy let's gooooo!

[–] erranto@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

This is awesome! I used Infinity for Reddit too so it'd be nice to have that look and feel back.

[–] shiveyarbles@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

You had me at downvote posts

[–] mikestevens@lemdro.id 6 points 1 year ago

Looks great! I'll be watching the progress on this one, for sure. Keep us updated!

[–] Ogygus@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Does it have a lemmy community?

[–] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

We've just lunched !infinityforlemmy@lemdro.id, the official community for the project!

Java, huh? Is that an inherited tech stack or was that by choice?

[–] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Infinity is written in Java. I may port some parts of it to Kotlin some day, but It's not my priority for now.

[–] DeriHunter@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I didn't know it's in Java. I never contributed to an open source before, do you mind if I take a look and see if I can assist?

Contributions are appreciated!

Awesome, Infinity for Reddit was my jam.

[–] wason@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Great! How do I download it?

[–] jmf@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Replying from infinity now. Wow it feels good to be home :)

[–] ristoril_zip@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

I can't contribute much beyond a crisp high five and best wishes. Infinity was my reddit browser for a couple years until the migration.

[–] ijeff@lemdro.id 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wonderful news! Hopefully mod functionality is in the pipeline πŸ˜€.
