Reddit Was Fun

The Internet is a river, not a pond. It was nice while it lasted, but we continue on.

Thanks Talklittle!

RIF Golden Platinum was my most used app since 2011

Also my first comment on Lemmy. RIP RIF

Started using Reddit with RIF, used this for 7 years and stopped using Reddit now that RIF is gone.

My first comment on this site as well, thank you RiF, you were the best app.

it was the best app for accessing reddit. it is gone so now I am done with reddit

Reddit is fun was my jam. I won't reddit anymore without it.

10 years on reddit, most of that through RIF.

It feels like I've been kicked out of my home by monsters.

If everyone is here, the content is here. So long RIF and thanks for all the fish, but if this takes off it will be so much better than ever before.

Another Reddit refugee reporting in. RIF was how I reddited... It will be greatly missed.

So, is it a problem that rif is still working for me some how? I went into it to see the dead app and canceled out of every message prompt after the good bye. Now when I open the app, it works.

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.

My first comment on lemmy! RIP RIF

Rest in Feace, RiF

11 years on Reddit and my mobile Reddit experience was 100% via RIF. No RIF. No Reddit on mobile for me (mobile was 95% of my Reddit use).

I just woke up, opened the app out of habit, saw a 429 error, and uninstalled. There's an empty spot on my home screen now that I'll fill with LiftOff after a mourning period

Like most of y'all came over when 429s hit up our beloved RIF. Hoping I can learn how to use this number n a similar way.

As an aside was the API rate limiting done earlier than anticipated? Thought it was a 7/1 thing and not a 6/30 @ 10p EST thing.

Had RIF for the entire time I've used Reddit, about 9 years. So so sad to see it go, signed up for Lemmy, let's hope it picks up steam! RIP to RIF ♥️

Sad, my most used app over the years.

how is it still working on my phone?

RIP RIF

So wait I logged out of rif because when I was logged in it was getting 429 and empty content... Now that I'm logged out it appears to work fine at the moment. What's happening?

Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.

RIP RIF May it rest with the best of them. To me it WAS Reddit. But so far Lemmy has been an easy onboarding! Let's keep the party going!

T'was an honor and a pleasure shitposting with you.

Glad to begin a new adventure

Also here after reddit is fun shut down. Pour one out for ya boy. I even listened to whatever the kpop song (jay park yesterday) posted on RiF's goodbye letter. Not sure how that song related to the app shutting down but I went with it

Poured out some of my beer in respect to RIF. Thanks for the amazing mobile experience!

Goodbye RIF. You'll be missed!

LIF??

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!

Sad day, can't wait for LIF 🤟

I don't even know how long I used rif, but it was for the majority of my reddit time, and that is over 12 years.

Sad to see it go, but I'm also hopeful for our federated future. Reddit hadn't been great for quite a while now.
