Happy ruleversary

100% RIF was the best, when it went bye bye so did I
For a month or two I still kept the app on my phone. As a memento.
Reddit’s official UX experiences suck balls
I still have it installed and I plan to keep it until my smartphone stops working
You just reminded me that I never uninstalled it lmao…
Same. I had gotten the paid version because the dev deserved something for such a great app. RIF died and I did a hard cutover to Lemmy. Deleted my Reddit account and probably caused some confusion for the cordcutters subreddit. I had a post which was part of the sidebar for about a decade.
Hey, thats me! 2 years already?!?! Freakin crazy
I know right?!
I loved RIF and was addicted to Reddit. But they dumped me and I am scorned and will never forgive reddit! Fuck reddit and I hope it dies.
Same same !
Piling on another comment to say that lurking here feels much nicer than on reddit. The comments are actually worth reading a lot of the time. RiF going down was a dark day, but Jerboa and Lemmy make everything light.
Because reddit is mostly bots and shills now. Lemmy will be up and coming soon and then it’ll be even more astroturfed due to how easy it easy to do that on this platform.
Shutout to Thunder, another great client.
Shit, it’s been 2 years already? Damn. I still get bummed over RiF when I think about it.
It could have been a top Lemmy app if open sourced…
Wasn’t RIF fir me, it was Apollo. But same general reason!
Some niche communities I miss (I know, I know. Make them! I’m a follower not a leader, and my schedule is bad enough already. I have substitutes). But overall Lemmy good.
I’m here for news and shitposts and random TILs.
Fuck Spez!
Yes Apollo!! I used it on my iPad, but boost was and now still is my go to. As soon as Boost was done, I jumped to Lemmy. I wasn’t sure if I would stick around in the beginning, but I’m so glad that I have. I have thoroughly been enjoying my time here
Scrolled until I saw an Apollo post. I miss the old days on Reddit. As much as I want it to be the same here, it simply isn’t.
When reddit announced that they were going public I knew the end was nigh. Money corrupts everything. What made reddit cool was the users and reddit just wanted to suck that dry. I was happy to leave but I pretty much just lurked on Reddit so it wasn’t that hard.
Man two years, feels so much shorter
2000s were only 5 years ago
And the nineties 15 years ago.
It’s been 2 years already?!
Exactly !!
Miss RIF so much.
We should make our own RIF
Would have to start from scratch as RIF was not open source and now abandoned as far as I know.
I still use RIF
Revanced ftw. Although some things stopped working, /r/random stopped working
Yep that’s me. RIF was so good. Why would a website cannibalize itself like this?
$$$
obligatory fuck spez and the corpos
Yes. I never used RIF. I’m simply concerned about who controls my media.
Boost was taken away for Reddit and swiftly given back to me for Lemmy. Bless the Boost devs and Lemmy hosts for saving me from the official Reddit experience 🤢
This is exactly when and why I stopped using Reddit permanently and switched to Lemmy. If you run out of “Active” content here, try switching to “Hot”. And then “New”!
Or just go outside and touch grass. Running out of content means that you should do something else.
What to do if I already touched all my grass
What comes after new?
Then it is either time for bed, or lemnynsfw/yiffit
You start posting.
New 2.0
I was one of those RIF users that left two years ago and now I have to start over since lemm.ee is shutting down. Can anyone recommend a good instance?
I’ve been on sh.itjust.works for the last couple of years. The admins are cool as hell. Highly recommend.
Seconded. It’s pretty chill here.
That was definitely one of the instances on my list to move to! Thanks for the recommendation!
its great here
I moved to sopuli.xyz, which is also run from the Baltics (Finland).
Meh
sopuli and sh.itjust.works as others mentioned are good. I wanted to add a shout-out for discuss.online for anyone in the USA with fantastic uptime stats.
Also I’m a huge fan of PieFed, well worth checking out.:-)
Piefed was on my list as well. I’ll look into discuss.online, thanks for the suggestion!
Just curious, why people avoid lemmy.ml i joined this beliveing its run by the lemmy devs so should be safest.
The whole Tankie thing. Just like MAGAts but on the other side. They’re authoritarian left with lots of Chinese and possibly Russian influence. Far left most of us support are on the opposite end of the authoritarian/individualistic axis from both Tankies and MAGAts.
I still miss rif 😭
I still use rif. You can get the app as an apk, and patch it to replace the original API key with your own using something like vanced. I already had my key from before the debacle, not sure how you get one these days. Anyway, it did give me some trouble while logging in, but eventually it worked.
This method stopped working for me 2 months ago. Something to do with headers (browser-agent), but didn’t bother fixing
Which part broke exactly? Because I can confirm the one on my tablet, which I installed a long time ago, still works. Haven’t installed it on my current phone which I got not too long ago, so I’m wondering if it’s gonna be a problem.
All of it. Failed to load any content from reddit.
Likely related to this:
https://www.reddit.com/r/redditdev/comments/1j2sgxw/please_ensure_your_useragents_are_unique_and/
It’s stopped working for me twice but i repeated the procedure to change the user agent or app key or whatever and re patch the app and it works again
