Going to miss this app
You must log in or register to comment.
So sad. This was my go to app when I used Android.
The first Reddit app I used. All good things must come to an end, I suppose. :(
man, this is bullshit
I don’t get it. “Reddit killed our app, so come talk to us on Reddit.”.
Rif has had a huge impact on the development of my brain growing up. For better or for worse. Rip rif
I loved this app when I used an Android and immediately bought premium. Very sad to see it go.
This was the only reddit app I ever used and I refuse to use any other, so I guess that’s it for me
End of an era…
It’s sad. I’ve used a lot of different reddit apps over the years. Used pretty much all of them at least once.
Only app I was able to use. Waiting for a LiF clone.
Just from the look of it, Thunder seemed very RIF-like. Last I saw TalkLittle was making an app for Tildes, no indication that he’s working on a Lemmy app sadly.
Very sad, I used this app daily for over 10 years. I didn’t even had the premium version, I also never logged in, I just lurked there for countless days. It may not be the prettiest app, but it works just perfect. Does someone know how I can buy the developers a few coffees? They deserve it.
Related to another Reddit app, but not RIF:
The Relay for Reddit dev (u/dbrady) is bravely working on Relay. I got an update yesterday. The changelog said “further reduce API calls”. I think he actually wants to make it a paid app, which I’d gladly pay for.
I hate the Reddit change as much as the next guy, but if the Relay dev can actually make a profit from it that’d be awesome. The app cost a one-time $4 or something, which I’m sure he never made bank with. Having like $3-5/month for it would probably be sustainable.
I appreciate it, and that’s probably the right move. Unfortunately, I know that I wouldn’t want to pay that, knowing that I’d be helping feed Reddit.
My sentiments exactly! The app developers will make the same, all or most of that fee will go straight into reddit’s pockets.
RiF was all I used on mobile. Very sad to see it go. Reddit is dead to me. I hate them now and don’t see myself going back.
Why does the internet have to be so shit now adays
Same. The official app was so clunky and always crashing. I saw a recommendation for rif and never looked back. Without rif, I wouldn’t have even bothered to sign up for reddit.
I logged back into rif on Wednesday for the first and last time since the boycott, to say goodbye to my friends in a private sub and put a “screw you spez” message as my flair on the biggest public sub I post in. Unfortunately I was the only one in the private sub not willing to put up with spez’s crap, so they won’t be recreating it on another platform. Thank you, spez, for taking that away from me.
