Came here because RIF shut down and I can't believe how bad the regular reddit app is. Here's hoping that Lemmy is the new reddit!
LEMMY IS FUN ... PLEASE. I will pay.
For now, Voyager is quite good.
I will pay, again.
Please please please LIF.
Came here because of the goodbye note from rif. Reddit is rif for me. The original app is just too bulky and annoying.
It's still not the same experience so I've been trying out apps for lemmy. Connect is the closest one I think.
Rest in peace in peace
Rest in fun RIF
Now do "RIF is fun for reddit" and you'll get the joke.
RestInPeace in Peace
I'll miss Reddit and mostly RIF, but I'm not staying on that sinking ship. I hope Lemmy and Mastodon will get more and more traffic so it just replaces these toxic platforms at one point.
RIP RIF, you will be missed.
I will miss RIF, and I cannot browse reddit without it. I am, however, looking foward to further interacting with the fediverse. I am just trying to remain respectful of places that other people created and established. Reddit was fun, but it was a mess (fake posts for karma, rage bait posts, harassment over the slightest little thing, people who couldn't and wouldn't intelligently articulate their view, etc). I'm hoping to not bring that here.
RIP RIF
tbf i didn't actually stop using redditisfun. I followed the guide to patching RIF with revanced which changes the user agent of the app to hide from reddit that you're using redditisfun
The instructions are here https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/14niwgu/revanced_patches_for_boost_infinity_rif_is_fun?sort=new
Gonna plug revanced here, too, since i already had revanced because i use it to have adfree YouTube and YouTube music with unlimited skips. Been using it since it was called vanced, when they just shared modified APKs. Then Google shut them down with a cease and desist letter so revanced was born. It's a system for patching apps yourself which gives the developers a bit more legal cover.

RIF is why I'm here, I deleted it from my front page, realized I hated going to the reddit website, and looked for something better.
I know he's working on something different, for a different site, but I also hope he's considering a LIF or something like that.
What site post Reddit is he tying into?
Thanks for the app, @talklittle. I purchased RIF back in 2012 and it has been the only way I've used reddit on mobile ever since. Sad to see it go.
RIF was the only Reddit I knew....
So long!! Hello! Lemmy! Cute name 😉
Thank you talklittle! You made redditing so enjoyable with RiF. I was introduced to your app about a decade ago and never stopped using it. I spent years writing exhaustive and informative comments, none of it would've been possible without the functionality of RiF.
I'm glad to see you on the Fediverse now :)
RIP golden platinum. We had our good times
I am still baffled that Reddit didn't have options like, ads in API calls for 3rd party apps, or paying Reddit users can use 3rd party apps. It feels like Google blocking me for using Firefox even though I am a Google One subscriber, on a Pixel, browsing over Google Fiber.
Throwing in my appreciation for the best damn Reddit app there ever was.
PSA: Boost is best.
I paid for RiF about 10 years ago, and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Big shout out to the development team for their support all these years!
14 years on Reddit, my main account would have been 13 years old next week and I finally took the plunge and deleted it. Screw those guys. Is it weird that I felt genuinely sad deleting it, though? Like, I'm 37 years old, a parent, married. I feel a bit silly.
Is there a chance that the dev can rewrite rif for lemmy? I love rif, my favorite app. I'm not using some Lemmy app and Im not loving it
I tried Jerboa, Liftoff and Connect Connect is the best one so far. I'm inclined to try Boost and Sync, those are repurposed reddit apps, but Connect is pretty decent.
Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
Missed opportunity for
Rif in peace
RIP in peace makes no sense at all…
A decade of a truly-superior user experience.
I can't even bring myself to delete it. I feel like it needs to stay memorialized in my app list.
Thanks for such a great product, devs. It'll be sorely missed.
I was going to leave Apollo on my phone but it kept showing up on my Home Screen in my smart widget and I kept tapping it to open it so it had to go :(
Rip in peace rif is fun :(
rwf: reddit was fun
I really truly appreciate how RIF changed my experience with Reddit and allowed me to curate my front page.
Was really struggling with awful content being pushed at me, but I still wanted to stay connected with the outside world. RIF allowed me filter out harmful stuff and make the whole thing so much better.
I miss my support communities & super niche interest subs. A lot. But I'm at least thankful that I got to experience them while I could.
Thank you, RIF!
RIF was my first Reddit app. I did move over to Boost a couple of years ago but RIF will always be my o.g. Android experience.
Thanks for all your work, talklittle - you improved a lot of lives, including mine, with this app.
There is this:
Or if you are looking at stuff on Reddit still: https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14nb5qs/comment/jq87sjd/
I actually appreciate the humor in the lyrics.
That said, it drives me nuts when people don't consider syllable counts in parody songs.
"This'll be the day that I die" can't be sung to the same tune as "soon I'll be a rich guy."
Probably should have gone with "soon I'll be a very rich guy." But the rest of the parody is written the same way unfortunately, so it'd all need to be fixed.
I'm fun at parties.
Missed the opportunity to put. "RIF" in peace hahaaha
Rest in Feace
I still have not uninstalled the app..it does not work but I keep in memoriam.
It started working for me again.. it stopped last night, and didn't work this morning... but now it works..
I'm assuming it's a mistake by Reddit?
