Memorial to "rif is fun for Reddit" Android app, aka "reddit is fun", shut down after June 30, 2023
I made a reddit account 7 years ago and used rif most of that time. It was the only thing keeping me on reddit because I was never satisfied with the official app. With rif gone, reddit will only be used as a means of finding answers to questions I search Google with. I hope that I won't have to depend on reddit for long in that regard either.
That's like the biggest net negative - how often do you Google your question with "Reddit" tagged in there to find real people answering your question?
Biggest bummer is seeing people deleting their post history. Like, I get it, but also screwing with troubleshooting for years to come until Reddit slips into obscurity.
Someone is building a search engine for Lemmy. So if Lemmy ever somehow manages to get as popular as reddit, that search engine will be awesome.
