The app used to be called Reddit is Fun. RIF. Reddit got pissy when they published their own shit app and told talklittle to change the name to not include "Reddit". So talklittle changed the name to RIF is Fun. Reddit is fun, is fun. Rest in peace, in peace. It has everything to do with RIF.

Ok, that’s a good answer, which makes perfect sense to me now. Thanks!
