Is this and RIF style app for here?
Connect for lemmy is best android app from playstore. Liftoff and thunder are big contenders but you have to d/l an apk and install it. Sync is building a lemmy app but it will be a couple of weeks. Jeroba is the official but connect and the others are better.
Liftoff is on the playstore, using it now from there :) Edit: Opps didn't see previous response untill I posted mine
Thanks, it wasn't there a couple of days ago when I looked. I'll install it today. I've only been in the federated world for around three weeks now.
Yah no worries still poking around for apps I like :) Good luck mate
Jerboa is very RiF like. Unfortunately if you use Lemmy.world it won't work until that instance updates. Currently on Connect for lemmy and it is ok.
I definitely miss Jerboa. But the past month has already brought so much chaos to my internet use. What's a little more?
It's working now!!
I have no idea what I'm doing, but I made it here. I hope to understand instances and whether I need to create other accounts soon.
The creator of sync for reddit is creating a similar app for lemmy, you can sign up for any updates on the sync community here. I plan on downloading that when it comes out.
Edit: I just downloaded connected for lemmy on the Google play store, working great so far!
I'm on the Connect train right now as well and so far it's not bad. I'm having fun finding new spaces to go, feels like Reddit thirteen years ago when I first joined. More discussion based, frontpage of the lemmy version of r/all isn't plagued by TikTok videos.
If you make an account on one instance, you can read and write on the others!
RIF was the app that I used when I decided to go deeper into Reddit. Been using it for the past 7 years until today. You will be missed.
Hello, fellower RIF users.
Time to see what this place has. Kinda like moving into a new house.
Not bad. They just need the page to stop automatically bumping posts down every 3 seconds and this site will be perfectly fine as a replacement
Seriously, I'm legit impressed; there's enough here right already to make the transition work. I'll miss BORU, but losing my AITA habit is probably a win when you're at the point of thinking human extinction may have some good ideas there.
Ha! I had the same two habit subreddits. Plus legaladvice.
My hard go-to's were AITA, BORU, Hobby Drama, Subreddit Drama, and Unresolved Mysteries. I'm still looking for replacements; is there a thread for us to find equivalent communities? I can (probably) move on from AITA once the jonesing tapers off but Unresolved Mysteries was my comfort community.
This is fixed now, they deployed 0.18

For now, jerboa is a decent working alternative as an app for lemmy.
I'm using Connect. It's the only app I've foujd so far that has a list view which is pretty similar to RIF's.
I can't get logged in through Jerboa. It keeps saying my server is on too low of a version.
Same here.
Seems to be an update issue on the lemmy.world side. In the meantime I'm giving connect for lemmy a shot.
So far, so good.
The king is dead, long live the king!
One of my last posts on reddit, one of my first upvotes (and now, my first comment) here. Seems fitting.
Ok
