I had a feeling they’ll put something like this, so I went in every now and then to see how infinity will react. I really loved the app, devs did an amazing job

    I was an Infinity user but I can’t help but feel this is the wrong move. After all Reddit has done to them they just set up a way to siphon miney straight to them for the devs’ hard work?

    Why?

      Infinity is open source. You can change the key and user agent (and one more field, but it escapes me at the moment), compile your own APK, and continue using it for free.

        Will it work without the reddit API though? Maybe if there’s a way to scrape the site but idk how everything else could be handled.

          What do you mean “without the API”? The API still exists. If you don’t want to subscribe to need to use your own API Key (sign up as a dev with Reddit), change the user agent, and change the redirect URL.

          Where did you see that? He said he’s charging for it and would not tell anyone how to change things to get past reddit, but that there’s a guide already out there that will walk people through the changes that need to be made.

          I’d be interested in seeing where he said he’s no longer providing source code updates.

          Edit: Apparently the dev is a she, not a he. I shouldn’t have assumed. I wanted to set the record straight.

        I think it was something about mentions of “infinity” in some parts. Though that might be part of the user agent as well.

      And isn’t it a little unethical not to even mention nsfw?
