I'm glad I left reddit
I'm glad I left reddit
Like a lot of the new users here I too am a former Redditor. I was on Reddit for 15 years, it was my main source of news and information. I didn't agree with many of the changes to reddit but kept on, till recently when I learned the app I'd been using "Infinity" would no longer work, I guess that was the final straw, but as the title suggests I'm glad. I started looking for other sources of information and entertainment which led to lemmy and the fediverse. I also found other content creators on platforms like patreon, substack, discord, mastodon,that I may not have found otherwise if I was still on Reddit. Just felt like sharing, thank you for reading this, hope you all have a wonderful day.

Glad you found a home here. FYI the spiritual successor for Infinity has a lemmy app called Eternity
Eternity is awesome!
Wow thank you! Finally app let's me swipe between posts.
I couldn't find Eternity through the search feature of the Google Play Store, but your comment pushed me to look for it better via Google search. Here it is.
I'll test it in the next few days. I haven't found a simple app that works for me yet (but maybe this time it's a charm). I use Jerboa, Liftoff and Connect for different features, because none of them has them all (and I didn't fall in love with Sync)
Eternity is still a work in progress, but it's very good, and getting better all the time. If you liked Infinity, you'll like Eternity .
I've been using Eternity for a week now and am honestly blown away! I believe their settings are a bit confusing, but they are granular and allow you to customize the app a lot. The final result is really nice. I got it to look similar to what RIF for Reddit was for me, while also trying out some new changes I like. Other apps are nice, for example Liftoff's interface for settings is the best I've seen in any app, since it shows a pictorial demo of what the settings you've chosen will look like.
Edit: clarified last sentence
