Is it just me? : memes

Infinity is great. Really hoping the dev refractors it for Lemmy.

[–] original_ish_name@lemmy.ml 28 points 2 years ago

I was surprised when I didn't see anyone talk about infinity

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 26 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I used infinity.

but i think almost anyone here uses/used an open source client no? Thats like a predestined path

[–] twei@feddit.de 10 points 2 years ago

I love the infinity client and I already miss the "swipe to upvote"-feature on jerboa

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's more likely, probably. On Reddit it really seems to be a forgotten child aside of the fossdroid people.

I tried Infinity but it simply wasn't comfortable for me so I went back to Boost. I generally prefer FOSS but in this case I had to go with what worked best for me.

Infinity is amazing

[–] XPost3000@lemmy.ml 21 points 2 years ago

Really hoping that Infinity comes to Lemmy, I love the app

[–] fernandu00@lemmy.ml 19 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love infinity! Easy to use and it doesn't push notifications all day to you check reddit all the time

[–] animist@lemmy.one 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Infinity is the only reason I had gone back to reddit. Not being able to use it is what initially drove me to the fediverse

[–] fernandu00@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Me too! And I like the decentralization thing

[–] animist@lemmy.one 5 points 2 years ago

Oh yeah I came for the "reddit alternative" and stayed for the decentralization

[–] mook@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago

Infinity has been my go-to. Spending much less time on it though.

[–] neosheo@beehaw.org 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use infinity. Was a slider user (and loved it) but isn't slide dead?

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (3 children)

It hasn't been developed for a year but it works just fine for most people.

[–] theory@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (5 children)

Just means its ripe for a fork and switching to lemmy

Edit: tempted to try, now...

RedReader > anything

FOSS and lightweight and works perfectly. Hope he makes it work on Lemmy moving forward.

[–] RoundSparrow@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

RedReader really focuses on being able to read text. You can set font sizes on every aspect of postings and comments to exactly what you desire for the size of screen tablet/smartphone you have.

[–] naoseiquemsou@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago

Redreader user here too. I find it incredible how it's hardly mentioned when people talk about unofficial reddit apps. It's perhaps the one that maximizes having lots of functions, being lightweight, and being easy to use.

I really wish the Infinity dev considers working on the backend of the app to make it work with Lemmy. That's no easy task, I'm aware of that, but dreaming is free am I right?

[–] DarkwinDuck@feddit.de 13 points 2 years ago (6 children)

There's the Idea of making a lemmy API that's Reddit compatible. Meaning all Reddit client apps could migrate to lemmy with minimal effort.

Is Infinity FOSS? Its my preferred client, but I had no idea it was open source. Would be great if it supported Lemmy.

[–] Nyaa@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yep! Here's their GitHub https://github.com/Docile-Alligator/Infinity-For-Reddit

[–] psysok@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago

Nice, I have used a lot of apps over the years, but this is the one that has stuck with me.

[–] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

It is

[–] IntoDespair@kbin.social 11 points 2 years ago

It's crazy how much better these apps make scrolling Reddit

[–] PanaX@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Wow, a mention of slide? Incredible. There are dozens of us!

[–] nodiet@feddit.de 5 points 2 years ago

I used to use slide when it was the only way to get your own personalised front-page without logging into a reddit account. But infinity does that too, now, and has a much better UI imo

[–] setInner234@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago

In all these thousands of threads discussing 3rd party apps, this is the first mention I've seen of Slide. Wild!

[–] hamborgr@feddit.de 11 points 2 years ago

Infinity my beloved...

[–] airbussy@lemmy.one 11 points 2 years ago (1 children)

As a Relay user the one thing I have to console myself is that it's logo is included in all those "going dark" announcement infographics.

[–] internet_user@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Another Relay user here. I'll sure miss it :'(

[–] frippa@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago

God I will miss infinity, my account was banned for bogus reasons so the ability to sub to subs without being logged in was amazing, also love the interface

[–] Nyxaion@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 years ago

I use Infinity. It's a bit different from what I used before, so I had to learn a few things, but now I like it. If Reddit gets rid of third party apps, or even old reddit, I don't know if I'm going to keep using it.

[–] larktreblig@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 years ago

I like infinty and sync

[–] eggnog@sopuli.xyz 6 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I guess I'm in the minority of Relay users, I hardly ever see it mentioned anywhere. although it's not FOSS

I don't know why nobody mentions RedReader. It's so much better than Infinity or all those closed-source pieces of shit that I wouldn't touch with a 10m stick.

[–] Akip@feddit.de 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

what about Reddit Enhancement Suite

[–] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

RES would be a tough one for reddit to fight since it doesn't rely on any APIs and happens totally on the client side

Hits me right in the RedReader.

[–] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Guess I'm the only Sync user lol

Infinity is the best FOSS app I've used for Reddit and supported Relay through purchasing Pro. As a UI/UX Designer, I admire everything these devs contributed for their 3rd party apps to user experience compared to Reddit themselves.

[–] Ilikemoney@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

Boost was amazing for me. Daily user, but not anything other than browsing, some commenting, and minimal posting. Is live for the dev to take a crack at a lemmy app

[–] derek@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago (5 children)

What's special about Boost? Asking as a person, who browsed reddit with it.
