The latest version of Eternity is compatible with Lemmy 0.19. You might need to log out and log back in, though.
However, the new functions aren’t implemented yet (e.g. the new sorting methods)
This reminds me of one of my older projects. I wanted to learn more about network communications, so I started working on a simple P2P chat app. It wasn’t anything fancy, but I really enjoyed working on it. One challenge I faced was that, at the time, I didn’t know how to listen for user input while handling network communication simultaneously. So, after I had managed to get multiple TCP sockets working on one thread, I thought, why not open another socket for HTTP communication? That way, I could incorporate a fancy web UI instead of just a CLI interface.
So, I wrote a simple HTTP server, which, in hindsight, might not have been necessary.
I discovered a channel called ‘Just Alex’ awhile ago, and I’ve binge-watched most of his videos. He makes videos about a variety of activities he engages in. For example, two years ago, he started beekeeping as a hobby. In these videos, he shows the progress he has made since then, taking care of his bees and harvesting their honey.
He also has videos on collecting mushrooms, growing crops, and traveling around Europe.
What I like about him is how calming his videos are and the amount of effort he puts into making them interesting, without resorting to clickbait content.

I don’t think it’s necessarily a third-party reseller thing. I bought tickets a few days ago literally from their app, only to get the same email that said I needed to ‘verify my identity’ because I bought the tickets for an ‘unauthorized third-party reseller’.
I think the IzzyOnDroid repo is updated once a day at 6 PM UTC.
You are right. I think it’s time to release it on Google play. I also want to focus on getting the app into the main F-Droid repo as well.
I believe for now it’s just some leftovers from reddit
Yeah, I forgot to remove that from the settings it seems. I want to implement multicommunities in the future though.
It’s a fork. I’ve implemented a few new features for Eternity that aren’t present in Infinity (e.g. images in comments). I don’t want to make it too different from the original app and I think it would be great to port back features and bug fixes upstream. However, afaik right now the original dev won’t be merging new pull requests until they’ve implemented the subscription model.
noticed that saved posts/comments aren’t being displayed,
That doesn’t sound good. Could this issue be related?
I’ve added an option to disable the stat blocks entirely. There’s a separate option to disable the post/comment scores for user pages.
Yes, you can put lemmy.world or https://lemmy.world in that field and it will work
Just implemented an option to disable either the stat block altogether or just the post/comment scores in this commit. I’ve built a new nightly I so you can test it 😄
An issue has been opened for this problem: https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Infinity-For-Lemmy/issues/144
It’s in the latest nightly build. Someone made a nice guide on how to use it with Obtainium: https://lemmy.one/comment/2026693
The new version will be released in a few days if everything goes fine.
I think they are referring to the changes I’ve made to the user/community pages
Thank you for your feedback. The new “statistics block” is something I wanted to experiment with. Personally, I prefer this one, but I could certainly add an option to hide it or switch back to the old one.
Regarding your question about why the timestamp on posts was moved, there wasn’t enough space to display the full/qualified names for users and communities. This often resulted in many undesired line breaks. Here’s the issue where this was discussed, and there are screenshots of other alternatives. I could implement those alternatives as configurable options.
I think this issue is fixed in this release.
