I am going to assume you want to know what a fork is. if not, ignore me.
If the sourcecode of a software is publicly available, someone can take that sourcecode and develop it into a different direction than the original software. In this case, a third-partt reddit app called Infinity is being developed into a Lemmy app by someone who is not the original dev.

sorry, what does this mean ?
