Is there a chance that the dev can rewrite rif for lemmy? I love rif, my favorite app. I'm not using some Lemmy app and Im not loving it
I tried Jerboa, Liftoff and Connect Connect is the best one so far. I'm inclined to try Boost and Sync, those are repurposed reddit apps, but Connect is pretty decent.
PSA: Boost is best.
RIF was my first Reddit app. I did move over to Boost a couple of years ago but RIF will always be my o.g. Android experience.
Thanks for all your work, talklittle - you improved a lot of lives, including mine, with this app.
I am still baffled that Reddit didn't have options like, ads in API calls for 3rd party apps, or paying Reddit users can use 3rd party apps. It feels like Google blocking me for using Firefox even though I am a Google One subscriber, on a Pixel, browsing over Google Fiber.
Just realized I've been using RIF from start to finish... 14 years. Everything else was shit. And that's not just kind of my opinion.
I really truly appreciate how RIF changed my experience with Reddit and allowed me to curate my front page.
Was really struggling with awful content being pushed at me, but I still wanted to stay connected with the outside world. RIF allowed me filter out harmful stuff and make the whole thing so much better.
I miss my support communities & super niche interest subs. A lot. But I'm at least thankful that I got to experience them while I could.
Thank you, RIF!
Rip in peace rif is fun :(
I paid for RiF about 10 years ago, and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. Big shout out to the development team for their support all these years!
Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of angels sing thee to thy rest.
Missed opportunity for
Rif in peace
RIP in peace makes no sense at all…
It's a meme
There is this:
Or if you are looking at stuff on Reddit still: https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/14nb5qs/comment/jq87sjd/
I actually appreciate the humor in the lyrics.
That said, it drives me nuts when people don't consider syllable counts in parody songs.
"This'll be the day that I die" can't be sung to the same tune as "soon I'll be a rich guy."
Probably should have gone with "soon I'll be a very rich guy." But the rest of the parody is written the same way unfortunately, so it'd all need to be fixed.
I'm fun at parties.
should have just asked ChatGPT to do it
"The Day Reddit Died" (Sung to the tune of American Pie):
Once upon a cyber-age, I still can vibe With how Reddit used to make me feel alive. Dropping my content, catching people's gaze, Maybe even making their day less of a maze.
Then came u/spez, making me shudder, With each update, worse than the other. Dreadful news hitting like a bolt, API calls suddenly worth a gold vault.
Third-party apps couldn't bear this mess, Every step closer to distress. Did I tear up, I can't recall, When I read about Apollo and RIF's fall? But something hit me, like a landslide, The day that Reddit died.
Chorus: "Hey there, u/spez guy, Thought you'd be Reddit's MVP, But we know that's a sky-high lie. Just a plain Joe with stars in his eyes, Saying 'Soon, I'll be the big prize guy!'"
Did you overhaul the subreddit's code, So only John Oliver's pics rode? And NSFW content became the play, With OnlyFans girls leading the way?
Remember the mod strike that caused a quake, Threats of being expelled, no give, all take. Admins kicked out the mod crew, In their place, a monkey zoo.
That was the day Reddit died.
Chorus: "Hey there, u/spez guy, Thought you'd be Reddit's MVP, But we know that's a sky-high lie. Just a plain Joe with stars in his eyes, Saying 'Soon, I'll be the big prize guy!'"
Then June 30th dropped like a bad meme, Despite the Reddit community's scream. Third-party apps posted their farewell, Users all around began to rebel.
The day that Reddit died.
And as they bailed from Reddit's sinking ship, They were singing: "Hey there, u/spez, you sly guy, Thought you'd be Reddit's MVP, But we know that's a sky-high lie. Just a plain Joe with stars in his eyes, Dreaming 'One day, I'll be the big prize guy.'"
I use Relay For Reddit and it is still working on my phone NSFW and all. I wonder why.
Relay is moving to a subscription model in the near future. Meanwhile it will remain free. The NSFW limitation is scheduled for July 5.
Well, it's the 6th and it's still working. Maybe they have problem separating things, as they most likely do not know how to block everything but let mod stuff work.
Missed the opportunity to put. "RIF" in peace hahaaha
Rest in Feace
So wait I logged out of rif because when I was logged in it was getting 429 and empty content... Now that I'm logged out it appears to work fine at the moment. What's happening?
Same, not sure what's going on. Just checked and nsfw subs are still on too which I thought was part of what was been taken away from 3rd party apps. Also, first comment on lemmy, used mastodon a while back when Twitter first caught fire but I'm liking it so far. Currently using connect for lemmy which seems good. Missing rif a lot today though. Just opening on impulse.
Are you logged in though? When I try to log in Reddit answers with a "you sent an invalid request - invalid client id". API changes are definitely taking effect.
I still open it accidentally on occasion :(
I just moved the icon for lemmy to where rif used to be, and it's been an almost seamless transition
What's your app of choice for Lemmy?
I still have not uninstalled the app..it does not work but I keep in memoriam.
RIF was the only Reddit I knew....
So long!! Hello! Lemmy! Cute name 😉
It started working for me again.. it stopped last night, and didn't work this morning... but now it works..
I'm assuming it's a mistake by Reddit?
I had never heard of this service before just now
