I used RiF initially because the phone I had 8 years ago was very old for it’s time, running Android 4.3 which was largely obsolete at the time.
The official reddit app, the masterpiece that it is (/s) couldn’t be downloaded for my version of Android. But I could download RiF. And so that’s what I used back then.
I’ve cycled through a few phones since then; most of them Google Pixels, which certainly are capable of running the official reddit app. But RiF was more than just a crutch for an old OS for me. It was my go-to way to browse reddit, and so I stuck with it, up until now.
No more RiF, no more reddit. It’s been a fun run, rest in peace.
