I'm going to miss RIF. I actually found reddit through that app in the play store. After 8 years of using it and 7.5 of having an account, it'll take some getting used to not opening RIF. I'll keep it on my phone as a memorial.

RIP RIF

I had to put my lemmy app where RiF used to be. Muscle memory has me click it without even thinking. Gonna take some getting used to.

Today I opened it a few times out of habit. That loafing circle just kept spinning and spinning. Goodnight sweet sweet RIF. I will take you from my home screen, but never from my phone.

I sort of did too. I deleted RiF last night and replaced it with another app on my Android. I probably opened that app 20 times just out of habit
