thank you for developing this app, it has been a fixture of my phone ever since I discovered it many many years ago.

I'm still getting current Reddit data out of RiF, as of right now. Not sure exactly what's going on there.

Thank you thank you thank you for the many many years of stellar service. I would be ecstatic if you just so happened to make LiF... you'd have an instant buy, you know!

Why does it still work though? ๐Ÿค”

Ngl I was sad when I opened RIF today and it redirected me to the old.reddit login form. RIP RIF, Reddit was fun with you ๐Ÿ˜”

Thank you for RIF. For years I thought it was the official app. I once tried reddits official app when it was released and it was a quick "nope" back to RIF. Thanks for the years of fun.

I used RIF for a looong time, tried official reddit app once, never opened it again. Never heard of Apollo until recently. Thank you @talklittle@lemmy.world

RIP RIF :-/

"RIP in Peace" is one of the most annoying redundant sayings to me... not sure why it bothers me so much, lol.

So sad to see RIF go, I was using it since I first found reddit about a decade ago. Fuck spez and his greediness

[โ€“] bunnyfc@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I've used reddit for 11 years and this was what I used it with mostly. Thank you!

On the other hand, Jerboa for Lemmy has started working for me again.

[โ€“] Lilwolf@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I used the official app for the first time today. Boy does it suck! Mobile and RIF is done. How the hell am I going to take a shit again? 10 years of training... I don't know how my bowels will react!
