...but I don't want to get rid of it! Been using RIF since 2011 and it'd feel so weird to take it off my home screen. I tried the Reddit app but it pollutes the front page with so much unnecessary shit that it becomes a chore to browse. Liking the look of Lemmy so far though.

Honestly, not as much anymore. Transitioning to Lenny was quite smooth with Connect and it made me aware of the Fediverse, which is such a fascinating concept.

RIF will always have a place in me, and I have not, and will probably not delete it anytime soon. I don't see it from the Playstore anymore, so all the more reason not to. Instead, like what I read somewhere here, I created an "Apps Graveyard" folder and placed it there, keeping me far from unconsciously tapping on RIF for updates.

It will probably take some time.
