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.
@grizz Relay's doing the same. I think some of the less popular apps like these can feasibly give the new API pricing a go.
I think the proposition has changed significantly for me though. I liked and supported these apps for a long time, but I'm not using them as vehicle through which to effectively subscribe to reddit.
Yeah, absolutely. I'm fine with a subscription, but not at that price and not with that CEO. Spez will not see a cent of my money, no matter how much I loved Relay.
