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.

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 โ‰  Free (as in money)

In the link, the dev even said:

Subscription using Patreon will also be available, but you can only download it on GitHub. It will not contain any Google Play services.

They haven't mentioned anything about the app being closed source. Please do not spread misinformation.

Ah damn. I was wondering why it was still working at all

[-] yoppa@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

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

[-] drcabbage@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Can confirm, I'm using it right now. Works great

While I'd absolutely love it, reddit is not going anywhere for a while.
