I used RIF exclusively - just super simple. Any app out for Kbin/Lemmy that gives a similar experience?

[–] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Connect is pretty similar. Slightly different lay out but close enough to get the hang of in a couple of minutes

Former RiFfer here. Although I'm playing with Sync at the moment as I type this, I've gravitated toward Connect quite a lot. It's not Rif but it feels familiar.

Yep, i started out on jerboa but it got too buggy for me. Stumbled upon connect and never looked back

Sync for lemmy just launched. It is the same as sync for Reddit which was my favorite. Awesome dev

Liftoff has been working pretty well for me.

IMO none of them are a great replacement. I'm trying Sync right now and am enjoying it. previously I used Voyager, which was really different but felt more polished than most other apps. I really hope we can get a Lemmy is fun someday.

Sync for lemmy is pretty close in my opinion. The layout isn't exactly the same but the different modes (compact, list, tile, big tile) and font sizes/choices can make it nearly identical.

A few things like how up/down votes work is a bit different but not crazy and the interface is really smooth unlike jerboa.

For now it's my go-to.

Connect is reasonably close.

I am trying out Summit and after choosing similar layout options to RiF it's identical. I'm pretty happy with it.

Hadn't heard of this one before, but it looks good. Love that I can fit like 8 posts per page. I don't see a way to jump to previous, next, or parent in the comments, but maybe that will be added.

Am in the same boat and am giving Sync for Lemmy a try right now ... with this reply.

[–] RadButNotAChad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Used Rif for years. Connect is the closest. I really hope they add tiles for tablets one day.

[–] yumcake@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Voyager is scratching that itch for me. Its pretty apollo-like, which is close enough to RIF for me.
