Ah damn. I was wondering why it was still working at all
The title of this post is misleading. If you follow the links, the dev says they are releasing a $3/mo subscription service for their app starting on 08/30.
The current Infinity app will stop working, and you have to install the new Infinity app, which is the same but with subscription.
I use Eternity now :)
Reading this on Infinity for lemmy
Eternity*
Oh, I missed that 😅

The new app is proprietary. Therefore it is dead to me
I don't understand what you're talking about. An open source app with a subscription service does not make it a proprietary app.
There are plenty of open source services/apps that costs money. Open source ≠ Free (as in money)
In the link, the dev even said:
They haven't mentioned anything about the app being closed source. Please do not spread misinformation.
Sad. Such a great app. The Devs should join lemmy. Its really sad they'll be wasting time on reddit which is coming to an end soon.
There is a fork: !eternityapp@lemdro.id
Works pretty good so far
Can confirm, I'm using it right now. Works great
While I'd absolutely love it, reddit is not going anywhere for a while.
