I downloaded from F-Droid and scanned it. Results are:

Tracker control is not really very reliable when it comes to these things. For example: if a browser does not link to google, but the user goes to google.com, the app will show blocked google trackers.

I haven’t checked the source code of infinity for lemmy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if those links are not made by the app itself.

And if I may make an unsolicited suggestion, get rid of tracker control and switch to a private DNS such as nextdns.io or adguard-dns.io/en/welcome.html: they block much more effectively, more control on your part, and fewer errors or apps that don’t work.
