it was the best app for accessing reddit. it is gone so now I am done with reddit
Another Reddit refugee reporting in. RIF was how I reddited... It will be greatly missed.
11 years on Reddit and my mobile Reddit experience was 100% via RIF. No RIF. No Reddit on mobile for me (mobile was 95% of my Reddit use).
Like most of y'all came over when 429s hit up our beloved RIF. Hoping I can learn how to use this number n a similar way.
As an aside was the API rate limiting done earlier than anticipated? Thought it was a 7/1 thing and not a 6/30 @ 10p EST thing.
Had RIF for the entire time I've used Reddit, about 9 years. So so sad to see it go, signed up for Lemmy, let's hope it picks up steam! RIP to RIF ♥️
Made my Reddit account on RIF almost 10 years ago. Never used anything else really, aside from the odd visit on the desktop site. Now, here I am. Fuck you, Reddit.
Rest in Feace, RiF

Sad, my most used app over the years.
RIP RIF May it rest with the best of them. To me it WAS Reddit. But so far Lemmy has been an easy onboarding! Let's keep the party going!
I used RIF for nearly a decade. Thanks for a great little app that got regular updates over the years. Talklittle, you are a great human! I will happily pay for your next app.
Also here after reddit is fun shut down. Pour one out for ya boy. I even listened to whatever the kpop song (jay park yesterday) posted on RiF's goodbye letter. Not sure how that song related to the app shutting down but I went with it
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!
I don't even know how long I used rif, but it was for the majority of my reddit time, and that is over 12 years.
Sad to see it go, but I'm also hopeful for our federated future. Reddit hadn't been great for quite a while now.
Boost app for Reddit made me come here, I hope this outgrows Reddit
T'was an honor and a pleasure shitposting with you.
Glad to begin a new adventure
After 9 years of RIF this was a weird weekend and boring poops! lol First post here using Jerboa and like the interface so far.
Goodbye, RIF. It was the best.
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.
I'll miss Reddit and mostly RIF, but I'm not staying on that sinking ship. I hope Lemmy and Mastodon will get more and more traffic so it just replaces these toxic platforms at one point.
RIP RIF, you will be missed.
It will be greatly missed, but interested to see how this all plays out with Lemmy and the other alternatives.
I will miss it...
To Talklittle... Thank you for all the years and hard work you put into RIF. I happened upon your app years ago when I was having a difficult time in my life and found simple solace there. Since then I fully embraced RIF and even got some friends to join the app/community as well. I am fiercely heartbroken over that other apps disgusting treatment of you and the others. I am very sorry, but more than that, I'm incredibly grateful to you. Thank you. Sending peace, love, and strength. 💕
RIF was fantastic. Thank you.
Farewell old friend it was fun while it lasted. Hope they have a good future working in some new project.
I used Reddit exclusively through RIF. It was perfect for what I wanted out of the site.
A sad day. But now I'm here via Jerboa and like it a lot so far.
RIF was the only bearable way to use Reddit on my phone, I am The Big Sad™️
