As much as I like browsing the Fediverse with Liftoff, RIF was just such a refined app. At the end RIF was what Reddit could have been.
RIP RIF
Yep it’s dead. What a shame.
Longest serving app on all my Android devices since 2012
Every time I got a new phone, one of the first apps I would install was RIF.
Fuck u/spez for ruining a great experience.
that sure was a neat run of a decade using this one app, massive respect to the devs!

I’ll miss my RIF 😭

So sad. I’m enjoying the fediverse so far but it just doesn’t have the userbase to support the more niche communities I enjoy on reddit.
This is how I’m feeling right now too. I’m hopeful that the userbase will expand quickly though.

Reddit is no longer fun
reddit is now bored
Wanted to check out Sync today, I was greeted with the app repeatedly closing immediately after opening it. So that’s dead as well. What a sad day this is for all of the 3rd party Reddit app devs.
Sync for Lemmy is a few weeks away so at least there’s light at the end of the tunnel there.
Yeah, really looking towards both it and Boost for Lemmy. Both seem like great looking clients I’d use a lot. In the meantime, it’s just Jerboa and Connect lol
I am still using Apollo with my own key. But well RIP to the apps. Will be missed.
I have Infinity installed with my own key, but I realized how much reddit kinda sucks so I just stopped using it overall anyways.
lemmy.world is already getting so much slower now
So ling, RIF. You will be missed.
Yeah Reddit is fun was the og imo. Remember browsing that shit circa 2013 on my nexus 5 lol. Pour one out for the homies xx
I get a 429 now, sad times are here.
Long live lemmy.

Any word if they’re making a LIF? It by far enhanced browsing and had everything I wanted in a phone reader.
