That's it folks. RIF has stopped working.
Reddit is no longer fun.

This is the one I used too. Goodbye Reddit.

This was the last push i needed to actually move on from reddit. Now i'll finally be able to retrain my muscle memory to open kbin instead of RIF when i sit on the toilet.

Feels weird man, used that app for years and now it's gone.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

RIF was Reddit for me, sad to see it end like this. But excited to see where this goes.

Weird. RIF still works here.

I've put the app on the corner to always remember what was taken away from us.

Good night sweet prince.

F to pay respect

Now for Reddit is going to stay open but I don't suspect it will be for long. Reading his post I don't think he has a firm grasp of what it's going to look like working within reddits cogs.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

It was my favorite Reddit app for many years. But the fun is now over.

RIP RiF! Thanks for all the fun!

Same with Sync. The dev is working on a Lemmy app, but I'm not convinced it can replace Reddit.

Was in the middle of deleting all of my post history using RIF when it stopped working. Had to finish up on a browser, sadly.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I thought it was shutting down tomorrow, so the shock made it sting all the more.

It's Fediverse full-time for me, now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Fyi just tried the app and it still loaded Reddit for me.

The shadow remains cast.

Thank you for 12 years of fun, talklittle

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yup has stopped working for me as well. Rip RIF.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Sync for Reddit is shut down now too 😢

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Wonder how big the next wave of refugees is gonna be.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm actually all for the huge wave. I found this in anticipation of the loss of RIF and I am very excited to see it take off.

Maybe all the new people to Reddit that dgaf about the people behind the content will just stay on actual Reddit and we will get the better groups?

RIF was a great app. Here's to hoping we bring all the best parts of Reddit across and continue the fun!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Dam, That is so real. RIP RIF my fav reddit client ever!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Reddit will never be fun again

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I used RIF for its accessibility features and screen reader support.

The Reddit App has none of that.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I keep saying it but this is more emotional than I would have thought. It's an end to an era. And RIF and the other apps helped us all connect, laugh, cry, vent, argue, meme and stuff together. The app devs were as much responsible for the success and entertainment of reddit as reddit itself. It's a weird.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I ditched it a week ago, i didn't want to experience this. so glad I am here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I stopped using Reddit and rif when the protests started. I've started seeing a lot more content on kbin so I'm hoping it keeps growing

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

BaconReader is no more. 7 years of use from me and I am so upset. It's not the same over here
