Sure hope things take off here. Fuck reddit.
I realized that at work today, I didn't even check reddit at all beyond my initial opening of it. Checked Lemmy the rest of the day.
That and did actual work because everything was fucked at work but that's beside the point.
I love how my subscribed are all in one list now, as opposed to have to select each one...other than that however, I honestly wouldn't want to change much else. Somehow it makes it easier to explore. Reddit made it too easy to set in ritual...or it seems I'm hitting more topics here anyway
Hey all. RiF brought me here. Leaving behind a 12 year Reddit account.
Hello there, fellow refugees!
We here
I am doing my part!
Hello Lemmy.world
👋❤️
I'll add the obligatory farewell to RIF - "the app I was happy to pay for". This seems like an interesting alternative - I hope the back end is up for it! I won't be going back to Reddit on principle.
Holy shit this is about to be the top post for the instance, welcome, everyone who's new!!! be sure to check the Communities page for World.
Highly recommend purging / editing your comments before you go. I used PowerDeleteSuite for my main and alt accounts and it worked really well. If you've got thousands of comments and heaps of data it'll take ages, but it's an important step, leave them with nothing they can monetize
Or you could just post something positive about JK Rowling and reddit will delete everything for you!
Fellow RIFugee here moving in to the Fediverse. After 8 years, the moment I opened RIF and could no longer refresh my feed, it felt like the end of a chapter of my life. With every ending comes with new beginnings, so here's to Lemmy and the Fediverse!
Is this the most upvotes a Lemmy post has received??
on world at least the top is 2.7k
We've been deceived for years with post upvotes artificially inflated and then we get surprised at the end of the dopamine crash with posts in a more normal range

just got a 429 message from RiF. there it goes
was on til the last moments, RIP RiF, my most used app by far....
Yep! I have a reminder in my calendar: "Delete reddit user". 11 years of contributions gone. Already deleted all posts and comments, but kept the user back so that if anyone's keeping score, it counts.
I just used PowerDeleteSuite to overwrite and delete my messages. I've also been using reddit for about 11 years. It feels sad in a way, like I'm losing a friend. The communities could be really great sometimes, and it'll take a while for the fediverse to truly catch up in terms of growth and features. I left my account active so I don't lose my saved posts but it might as well be dead, the app is garbage and the site is dying.

Big ol fuck spez. Sync just closed down. I'm done with Reddit.
Relay will still work for now. The developer stated they will be doing a subscription model soon. It's odd how they were able to do this but not Apollo.

I didn't think infinity would be finite but tomorrow we'll reach the end of Infinity for sure
One of the best apps for sure! If you want to keep using Infinity, you can build the app with your private API-key following this guide. Also there's a fork of Infinity which supposedly makes it compatible with Lemmy, but I haven't tried that one yet.
One more day until Reddit Isn't Fun... :(
It's been a good run, but without RiF the site is worthless.
That being said, it paves the way for the Fediverse to grow, so rather than celebrating the end of an era, I'm enjoying the birth of a new one.
Reddit was RiF for me. I don't like Tildes so can't follow TalkLittle to his new app. What's everyone using for Lemmy? Jerboa started crashing with the latest updates, so I'm trying Connect for Lemmy. It's ok. Would like to give a few other apps a crack too.
What's his new app called? I wanna try out Tildes too
It's in development according to the RiF goodbye message. So no name yet. Will be interesting to see if it looks and feels like RiF.
Excited for Lemmy.
Reddit was it was good while it lasted, but it was just a container for online communities. The AP protocol is superior to a centralized model in every way.
Onwards you beautiful nerds!
