A percentage of the total supply is lost yearly due to forgotten passwords. This means that the linear creation of coins will eventually reach an equilibrium with the rate of coin loss, and Monero will not inflate. Currently, depending on the rate of lost coins, Monero might actually be deflating.

Send this to anyone saying Monero has an infinite supply, implying it will inflate and lose value. It won’t.
