Also note, that there are issues with logging in with an email address in the latest released version of Eternity.
Based on the error message, perhaps this problem is related to this issue? The issue now closed, but it's not in the releases yet.
It's great to see such cool FOSS options. Thanks for sharing this – super helpful!
You may need to log out and log back in if you are experiencing issues with upvoting, making posts as read, commenting, etc. In most cases, it seems upgrading to 0.19 invalidates the access tokens.
Right now, I can't give you an exact timeline. The current state of the master branch (the nightly builds) is less than ideal. It will require some time to make it less buggy and sluggish.
I could, however, put together a minor release from the patches we already have there but building on the 0.1.2 release. This would include the new sorting types and instance blocking introduced in Lemmy 0.19.
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)
Yes, It's on my radar. Basically, that's the next "big feature" I want to work on after multicommunities. Hopefully, I can get some free time soon to actually work on these
Yes, that's a bug on the nightly builds. I think it comes from the commit merging features from Infinity.
It seems like some authentication issue. Perhaps you need to log out and log back in?
Don't worry; the latest version of Eternity is compatible with the upcoming 0.19 Lemmy release.
As for the lack of updates lately, I am very busy at the moment with work/uni stuff. I might be able to spend some time on it during the winter break, but I can't guarantee anything.
Yes, I am not sure how I missed this. It was not intentional.
This was an issue with kbin magazines. It is fixed in the nightly builds
Yes, I'm working on preparing multicommunities, which includes the anonymous homepage feature.
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.
In the Codeberg issue, someone mentioned that disabling the "Respect community recommended comment sort type" option fixes the issue. Is it enabled on your end?
Yes, it loads the full size of the image instead of scaling it down. It's an old issue that I need to fix. It has been reported here.

Hello everyone!
I have some good news! Eternity has finally been added to the main F-Droid repo. I've managed to get reproducible builds working, so this version is the same as the one on Codeberg (but verified by F-droid).
The app should make use of Lemmy's cross-posting API instead. I should create an issue on Codeberg for this functionality as well.
Hello everyone!
It's been some time since our last update. As the version number indicates, this is primarily a bugfix update; hence, it doesn’t bring the "big new feature" I had hoped to introduce. The most important change here is that this version of Eternity will be compatible with the upcoming Lemmy version 0.19.
It's worth noting that upon upgrading to this version, you may need to log out and then log back into your account, based on my experience.
For the next release, I want to address more of the common issues found in our bug tracker. So, there may be another minor update shortly, but I can't make any promises at the moment. I've also made some progress with multi-community support and I plan to introduce modding tools as well.
In the meantime, thank you so much for your continued support.
Hello everyone!
First and foremost, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who poured their time, talent, and effort into creating icons for Eternity. The creativity and dedication displayed by our community are truly overwhelming. I'm sincerely grateful to each and every one of you.
I'd also like to apologize for the delay in putting up this voting thread. Life has been especially busy lately, and I appreciate everyone's understanding and patience during these times.
Voting Rules:
-
Only upvotes count as a vote. To keep things fair and positive, please refrain from downvoting.
-
The thread will be open for voting for a week unless we see a clear winner before then.
To cast your vote, simply upvote the comment containing your favorite icon design. And once again, I kindly ask that you avoid downvoting any submissions.
In light of the upcoming changes in Lemmy 0.19, I am planning a minor release that could feature the winning icon.
Thank you all for your continuous support and contributions to Eternity. Let's vote and select the icon that will represent our app!

Hello everyone!
I've finally released Eternity on the google play store. Note that this is not compatible with the existing releases as this build has a different signature.
Thanks for your support and looking forward to your feedback!
Hello everyone!
I've just released Eternity v0.1.1. This is meant as a small patch to fix issues and improve stability. For the complete changelog, please visit the release notes.
Thank you for your continued support and feedback! If you have any questions or suggestions, please don't hesitate to leave a comment below.
Cheers! 🚀
Hello everyone!
You may have noticed that Eternity's icon could use a bit of a facelift (I just hacked it together to have something). Well, it's time for a change and I'd like to get all you talented folks involved!
So, I want to host a competition where you can submit your designs for a new app icon. Once we have all the submissions, we can vote as a community to pick our new icon!
Some details to keep in mind:
Deadline: I'll be accepting submissions until the 8th of September, 2023, 18:00 CET. I might extend this deadline if we have too few submissions.
Format: Submissions should be in SVG or PNG format, with a 1:1 aspect ratio.
Resolution: Please ensure your design is at least 512x512 pixels if you're going with PNG.
Monochrome Version (Optional): It'd be great to see a monochrome version of your design too (for Material You icons).
Design: Your design should be colorful, fun, and engaging. The original UFO spaceship could be a source of inspiration, or elements of the fediverse or Lemmy. Of course, if you've got another creative idea, go wild!
Once the submissions close, we'll have a public vote to pick the winner (similar to what we did with the app name).
Thanks in advance for participating.
Happy designing!
Hello everyone!
I've just released the first version of Eternity (after changing the name from Infinity for Lemmy). It's been long overdue, but I wanted to finish a few features before this update. This release includes various fixes and new features, such as:
-
Blocking users/communities
-
List blocked users/communities
-
Separate up/down votes (can be disabled in the settings)
-
Private messages
-
Content reporting
-
New themes (including a new default one!)
-
Fixed various crashes.
And a huge thank you to everyone who provided feedback, translated the app, or contributed in any form during the testing phases of this release. Your insights and suggestions were invaluable in making Eternity better for all users. I'll continue to gather feedback and make improvements in the coming updates, so please don't hesitate to reach out with any further thoughts or issues you might encounter. Your support and engagement mean the world to me! Happy browsing!
Hello everyone!
I'm excited to bring some news to our wonderful community today. After an engaging voting process on the voting thread, we as a community have decided to change the name from Infinity for Lemmy to Eternity. 🎉 I am grateful to everyone who participated and voiced their opinions. It was great to see so much involvement!
While !eternityapp@lemdro.id will be our new gathering space, I'd like to let you know that the original !infinityforlemmy@lemdro.id won't be closing its doors immediately. This way, everyone has enough time to transition comfortably and get accustomed to our new home.
Lastly, remember, while names may change, our spirit and camaraderie remain eternal. I cherish our roots with "Infinity for Reddit" and am excited about the journey ahead in "Eternity". Let's collaborate, share, and continue building on this vibrant community.
Have fun and see you all in Eternity! 🚀🌌
Hello everyone,
I'm not sure this is the right community for this, but I want to announce my new project: Infinity for Lemmy.
Basically, this is a fork of the Infinity for Reddit application, modified to get it to work with Lemmy.
But I must remind you to temper your expectations as this project is still in its infancy. It has some basic features already in place, but there’s a lot more to be accomplished.
What Infinity for Lemmy Can Currently Do:
• Browse posts • Handle multiple accounts • Upvote and downvote posts
What Infinity for Lemmy Cannot Do (Yet):
• Load comments • Handle subscriptions • Search for posts, users, or communities • Write posts or comments • Send private messages • And many more
So, while Infinity for Lemmy is in its current state not a feature-rich client, but it’s a promising start.
For those interested, here’s the link to my git repository: https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Infinity-For-Lemmy
I invite everyone to contribute in whatever capacity they can, whether it be through coding, reporting bugs, suggesting features, or even just providing feedback and insights. Let’s shape the future of Infinity for Lemmy together!
