RIF was my way to get to Reddit. I will miss it terribly. So long, and thanks for all the fish.

My melancholy is tempered by the Fedirverse, Lemmy, and particularly, here at Beehaw! 😄

This feels like a better and nicer home, anyway. I'm sad for the loss, and this smaller community won't have what the scale of Reddit's user base could bring...but the nicer and happier community here has its own virtues.

It reminds me of the best of Slashdot, among other small and very valuable online communities of yore. 🙂
