In space...
Edit: I use Eternity specifically because it's a fork of my favourite Reddit client. Idk man... I don't wanna relearn another client 🥺

Same... When I used reddit, infinity was the only app I ever used, and this is the only lemmy app I ever used

I'm not interested in doing android dev (actually I am, but not the way any of the toolchains I found so far want me to, and so the learning curve is just too steep for me), but "someone" should take the lead. Maybe do a soft fork, open PRs, and nudge the maintainer. Who knows, possibly they will be giving commit rights. 🙂
We're getting abandoned like Liftoff
Sad times. Loved liftoff, transitioned to eternity. Currently using thunder - if that gets abandoned you know who to blame lol
Who?
Me - I feel cursed, whatever app I migrate to just fizzled out
Time to fork
If i had the time i would but already got a main project study and a side project going.
I'm using Eternity daily.
Yeah, writing this from Eternity!
we indeed are
I really hope development continues at some point. Even the nightly updates have stopped coming.
It dangerous to go alone, take this :
What happened?
Aren't we all ?
If you're looking for another app, Thunder is a great app, and it is actively maintained!

Thanks, it looks interesting. I see that it supports some swipe actions. Does it also support swipe between posts? That is one feature of Eternity which I've struggled to find anywhere else.
The only thing I don't like about it is a lack of an ability to hide the bottom to bar, waaaay too much padding.
"Look around, Ted. You're all alone"
Dunno, brah, I'm not alone, I'm with yer ma
Bummer I really liked liftoff before I was forced to switch to eternity... Do I need to switch again? I just want something kinda feels like RIF...
I've tried just about every app available for android, and personally I've settled on Voyager for Lemmy as a potential replacement for Eternity. I did the same migration coming here from Liftoff, but at least for now, we may want to test the waters elsewhere. :(
If you have the means, you may want to consider sending the Eternity dev a donation, to show him that it's worth continuing, as well as in thanks for the many months of joy it has brought us already.
