    Reddit is Fun user here… I had 15 years on reddit, I was part of their FCC filing in favor of Net Neutrality… I’m not going back.

    It’s not just about shutting down the apps, it’s about the utter disdain they showed the communities and the users.

      Rip RIF, you served us well all these years.

      I’m sort of motivated by laziness. When RIF stopped working I thought oh well, guess I just use Lemmy on my phone.

      When old.reddit stops working some day I do the same for the desktop. Reddit is literally driving me away. How badly can they fuck up? The modern reddit they are trying to push on us is not the reddit I signed up for 11 years ago.

        But, but, it’s the one they can monitize for their IPO! ;)

      I’m the same, used RIF for 10 years and really miss it. I would love a Lemmy app that rivals how good RIF was.

        Started with Jerboa on Android, it was fine, found wefwef and downloaded the app for that, it’s just about perfect.
