Infinity, a lesser known open-source third-party Reddit app for Android, has announced that it will be switching to a subscription-only model. This would mean that the F-Droid version of the app will be delisted and the API key currently in the source code of the app will be removed. As of this post, the developer is currently not interested in converting Infinity into a Lemmy client, but encourages others to look into doing it themselves because of the app's open source nature.

Props to the dev for trying to keep the app going, but Reddit isn't worth the price they ask nowadays, and when 3PA get killed for good, without the moderation those allowed, Reddit would be even more of cesspool of spambots etc. so absolutely not going to pay for a spam service lol
