I just joined Lemmy today after uninstalling Reddit Is Fun. It was absolutely surreal just how much habit was in pulling out my phone and pressing the space where RIF used to be. Decided I'm kind of mostly done with Reddit other than quick information look ups on the website.
So here I am! First post! The only constant in life is change. Hello everyone, I hope we all get along! :)
I'm going to leave RIF right where it's been on my home screen for the last decade, as a little memorial.
I keep turning on my phone and going straight for the empty spot where the rif icon was. Crazy it might take a while to shake
Get a lemmy app and put it there :P
I'll have to check out what's currently available. Any recommendation?
Trying out Connect for Lemmy. Seems pretty solid. Open to other suggestions!
First comment myself - but your sentiment is identical to mine. Hoping Lemmy will grow into a better analog to reddit. I will def miss RIF.
I've just done the same. Are you using an android client? Is there something very similar to RIF?
RIF refugee, I'm using Connect for Lemmy, it's pretty good. I tried Jerboa and it has a couple more customization options, but it's much, much buggier in my experience.
Jerboa on play store, babyyy
This thread on the Lemmy Apps community should help you deciding which client you want to stick with
I'm using Connect for Lemmy and went into the settings to change my list to "reversed list" and it feels really close to RIF.
I've been using Connect on Android today and it isn't bad. I've heard liftoff is also similar to RIF which I'll try later tonight.
Hope we have luck in finding a good app!
This comment is a 1:1 how my day went.
Welcum ❤️
Welcome aboard! 😉
welcome! Come on in the water's great!
Same here, but I'm still unsure if Lemmy is a good alternative. Having to sign up for every community just to upvote/downvote, comment, or post seems foolish. Posting, totally fine. Upvote/downvote and comment? That creates a problem.
I would be nice if they had centralized upvote/downvote and comments in one general login if they wanna get more users to migrate. They could allow communities to block that access if they want, for more control so only accepted users can interact, but otherwise it feels like im bound and gagged trying to use this site, at least compared to reddit.
These issues are like programming UI 101: Don't make the user have to login to too many things or over complicate it or they won't use it. Because of that I worry this ends up being only content interaction one way so I might as well just go back to TV or corporate media/news sites where users can't participate.
Edit: huh, I guess you can. Well nvm this is not bad.
As long as your instance is federated with other instances you should be able to upvote/downvote/interact with any other instance’s comments, posts, etc.
You probably were trying to do so with a beehaw.org instance which was recently defederated from most other Lemmy instances
hello, I'm also new here. There are a veritable tonne of third party apps being actively developed for Lemmy. No doubt you'll find one to fill the void left by RIF in short order
I'm hoping to find a good one. Apollo was fantastic, and I'd love to find something in that vein, but so far searching "lemmy" in the app store for iOS hasn't turned up anything.
I guess I need to give it a little time.
Deleted my 7-year-old Reddit account today. I'm not willing to leave any contributions to a website that actively wants to prevent me from contributing.
