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:

•	Browse posts
•	Handle multiple accounts
•	Upvote and downvote posts

What Infinity for Lemmy Cannot Do (Yet):

•	Load comments
•	Handle subscriptions
•	Search for posts, users, or communities
•	Write posts or comments
•	Send private messages
•	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!

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

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

    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

    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.

      Thank you so much for this. I tried it out and heres a list of a few of the problems I have encountered so far:

      When I go to saved posts it shows what I have posted rather than the posts I have saved. Same applies to save comments.

      The “karma” score is still there from the original reddit Infinity.

      Subscriptions also does not show anything.

      Slow loading times every once in a while.

      I hope this list helps. Other than that it works great for just normally browsing liking posts saving some pictures and leaving comments.

      Looking good so far.

      Edit: it also seems to have trouble adding a second account and gives the error “can no fetch user info”

        Thank you for the fast response!

        1. The saved post functionality is not implemented yet. I want to add this functionality in the following days.
        2. The “karma” score should be removed, I agree
        3. The subscription part is interesting. Is this on the main page or the subscriptions page?
        4. I’ve also experienced slow loading times, mostly on the main page. I believe this part of the code causes this issue
        5. Sadly, the “cannot fetch user info” error is shown right now when It fails to get the access token (for any reason). If you can provide me with some logs or open an issue about it, I can take a look at it.

        Thanks again for your quick review. If you spot any major issues with this build please open an issue on codeberg.

          Subscriptions works now after checking the app again. Might have been some connection error? If I encounter any more issues I will open an issue on codeberg.

            There was an issue with loading subscriptions on the main activity, which I’ve fixed in this commit today (it’s not in the release yet). If you click on the subscriptions menu option once, it will load them and store them in the database, so you will see them after that. Maybe this was the same issue?
