Rest in peace in peace
Rest in fun RIF
Now do “RIF is fun for reddit” and you’ll get the joke.
I used RIF for a looong time, tried official reddit app once, never opened it again. Never heard of Apollo until recently. Thank you @[email protected]
“Error loading Reddit data. Please try again later.” 🥺
I got that at 1900. I was driving. I thought I had until 2359. Goodby dear friend.
It seems like it stopped at 23:59 UTC
I’m in EDT time and it quit for me at 1900, which is 23:00 UTC
Goodbye RIF. You’ll be missed!
LIF??
TIF from what I heard. Tildes, that is
Sad day, can’t wait for LIF 🤟
IKR that would be great!
Now I’m wondering, any chance for the app to be remade for Lemmy in the future?

Dev is working on an app for Tildes at the moment.
10 years on reddit, most of that through RIF.
It feels like I’ve been kicked out of my home by monsters.
Used it daily from my bed, the office, and the shitter.
RIPRIF
Throwing in my appreciation for the best damn Reddit app there ever was.
RIF is Fun was amazing. So well designed and everything just worked.
RIF should be a case study in UX/UI design: it’s user satisfaction (and really addiction) were a direct result to the ease of use of the interface and the speed with which you could consume content.
I fucking miss RIF already, and it’s not been 24 hours yet. When’s the last time you felt this way about an app?
Hello Lemmy is fun??
Good night, sweet prince. You weren’t a good app… you were the best.
RIF was pretty much reddit for me, such a shame that it had to end in this way.
Agree, not the way I expected things to end, but now we’re here at lemmy. Tried browsing reddit earlier without rif and stopped after 1 page. It’s insanely ad heavy and clunky…
The next best way to browse reddit is through a teddit front end. The main one is teddit.net, but today I learned there is another one at reddit.lol, along with various others. You can’t log in or vote, but if you happen to get linked to Reddit, using one of the teddit sites will let you avoid the ads and will provide a streamlined page.
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.
RIP RIF. The only app that I could bear to use on android. Thanks for so many awesome years.
Here’s to seeing if Lemmy (or maybe tildes.net if we get invites) works out. Seems like a cool community so far
Opening RIF today is so depressing 😭😭
Try it again
