Your app was the only way I could effectively use reddit on mobile. Not because of any physical difficulty, but because I became so accustomed to it, the features and powerful simplicity. The engineering addage: “the product isn’t complete when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away” rang so true with your excellent app.

Cheers, and I can’t wait to see what you can do with Lemmy and Tildes. A Reddit (was) Fun user since 2009

Without RIF, there’s no fun in Reddit. I don’t think I’ve ever used another app in my 11 (wow, sounds like more than I thought…) years on there. Wishing you all the best and thanks for the meme, laughs, insights and info.

Reddit Is Fun was how I started using Reddit before there was an official Reddit app. For nearly a decade I have used RIF almost every day of my life, and I will miss it dearly. Thank you for all the good memories. This thank you message will be my first comment on lemmy, and I truly hope this community will thrive.

RIF is the only way I’ve used Reddit. Super sad to see that this is how it ends.

RiF was the only way I ever interacted with Reddit on my phone, it’s been such a wonderful waste of my time over the years. Thanks very much for that.

Thank you so much. RIF was Reddit for me. Thank you for all of your hard work and for being a part of our lives in this space. When I’ll look back on my 12 years on Reddit, it will always be through a RIF filter. Best of luck for anything you may pursue going forward.

RIF was the true no-nonsense Reddit app for sure. Thank you for many many years of service. I hope the Tildes site opens up at some point, and will likely be using your app again should that come to pass. Make some noise if you ever make a kbin or lemmy app, I know for sure you will have plenty of users from day 0.

It’s the end of an era. I loved every minute with RIF. Strange feeling, that it’s over, and that it ended like this.

Lemmy and Tildes seem like good places to land. I’m excited to see where they go. Here’s to what’s next!

It’s been an honor to be of service.

I feel like we knew this day would come, but didn’t expect it to come quite so soon, nor so abruptly.

I can’t remember why I switched to RIF exactly, but it was my go-to Reddit mobile experience for many years. I never bothered to look at anything else as it perfectly fit what I was looking for in a Reddit app.

Thanks for putting out such a great app, and best of luck in the future!

Thats really sad. I started using the app about 13 years ago, in a time where I had very little frends and thought a girlfriend was never an option. Now 13 years later im going to marry in july and have all my friends around me. So thanks Reddit is fun for filling a hole I had all these years ago.

Reddit was Fun. Such a smooth and well designed app. Godspeed!

Thank you RIF developers. I must have used this app for at least 10 years. End of an era :(

Also can’t even get reddit on my phone, no way I’m installing the official app. old.reddit the only thing left worth using.

I REALLY wish another app would use the same drop-down menu RiF had. I loved that I could just type “fli” and it would sort thru all my subs and show “flightsim” and “microsoftflightsim”

That was the main reason I stuck with it the entire time.

I’ve had the RIF app for over 10 years. I never taught an app stopping it’s service would affect me but this honestly hurts. Thank you for everyone that developed and maintained the app, you have a special place in my heart.
