Most used app on my phone, it will be missed.

Long time BaconReader user. Very disheartening, but hopeful for the alternatives

Bye RIF Thanks for all those years :'-(

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?

I used the official app for the first time today. Boy does it suck! Mobile and RIF is done. How the hell am I going to take a shit again? 10 years of training... I don't know how my bowels will react!

You can continue to do the same, just with Lemmy.

So sad to see RIF go, I was using it since I first found reddit about a decade ago. Fuck spez and his greediness

Good night, sweet prince. You weren't a good app... you were the best.

Thank you so much u/talklittle for 10+ years of enjoyment. The thing that stood out about rif was how clean and information dense the list view was. It reminded me of old.reddit where you're looking at a list of posts instead of constantly scrolling like the newer reddit card design. Makes me feel slightly more sane about staring at my phone.

Very excited to see where your future takes you. reddit was always going to fail. Every site or social media network will eventually fail. In its place will fall something else. As ridiculous as your experience has been, perhaps this is for the best.

RIP RIF you were the GOAT

Is it actually down? A friend of mine says he still has access to it. I don't have an Android, do I can't confirm.
