Another day, another model.

Just one day after Meta released their new frontier models, Mistral AI surprised us with a new model, Mistral Large 2.

It's quite a big one with 123B parameters, so I'm not sure if I would be able to run it at all. However, based on their numbers, it seems to come close to GPT-4o. They claim to be on par with GPT-4o, Claude 3 Opus, and the fresh Llama 3 405B regarding coding related tasks.

benchmarks

It's multilingual, and from what they said in their blog post, it was trained on a large coding data set as well covering 80+ programming languages. They also claim that it is "trained to acknowledge when it cannot find solutions or does not have sufficient information to provide a confident answer"

On the licensing side, it's free for research and non-commercial applications, but you have to pay them for commercial use.

Llama 3.1 is out! (ai.meta.com)

Meta has released llama 3.1. It seems to be a significant improvement to an already quite good model. It is now multilingual, has a 128k context window, has some sort of tool chaining support and, overall, performs better on benchmarks than its predecessor.

With this new version, they also released their 405B parameter version, along with the updated 70B and 8B versions.

I've been using the 3.0 version and was already satisfied, so I'm excited to try this.

Just wanted to add here that you can test the release early with the nightly builds or with the Google Play Beta program (it's still under review, but hopefully it will be out there soon).

If you find any issues with it, please let me know so I can fix it before this release.

UPDATE: It should be available on the Google Play Beta now. Unfortunately, I've found some issues with posting comments/posts so I will need to fix that before the release.

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

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).

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 28 points 1 year ago

Sure thing! I worked on merging changes from Infinity to Eternity, and one of these changes was actually this very thing. Implementing this by itself isn't too hard either, and it would help improve the usability of the app.

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.

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 45 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

No, the app is not abandoned. I'm actually planning a release today, provided everything goes smoothly. This update will address several bugs that have been reported here and on the bug tracker.

I've also been in discussions with the F-Droid repo. They are also waiting for this new release, as this will introduce reproducible builds. Hopefully, this means the app can be published there soon.

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:

  1. Only upvotes count as a vote. To keep things fair and positive, please refrain from downvoting.

  2. 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!

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 104 points 1 year ago

Yep, still on it! Just super busy with some real-life stuff right now.

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 31 points 1 year ago

Yes. When the "Lemmy part" is more or less completed, I'm planning on adding Kbin and possibly other fediverse services if I have the time.

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!

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!

You are right. I think it's time to release it on Google play. I also want to focus on getting the app into the main F-Droid repo as well.

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! 🚀🌌

I was quite busy in the first half of the week, so I couldn't implement the features I wanted for the next update.

I think I should release patches a bit more often to tackle these critical bugs.

I'm also thinking about setting up an F-Droid repo for nightly builds, so people can try new features before they are officially released.

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 35 points 1 year ago

I've just found a bug in this release. When I tap on the "show all comments" button the app crashes.

I've patched it in my latest commit.

[-] bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu 27 points 1 year ago

I'm so happy to see Infinity for Lemmy in a meme. This made my day. Thank you.

Infinity for Lemmy (codeberg.org)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by bazsalanszky@lemmy.toldi.eu to c/android@lemdro.id

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!
