    It actually hurt a little to uninstall it tonight.

      I’m keeping it on mine as a sort of weird shrine to the old world, but yeah man, clicking it out of years of habit just to get an error message really hurts.

        Same, I didn’t uninstall it but I removed the icon. I still instinctively go for it…muscle memory.

      I still can’t bring myself to do it yet. Just deleted the shortcut

      Same. I’ve had RIF for 10 years. It was the first app I gave 5 stars on Google Play.

    Easily consumed half my phone usage for the last 10 years. Went down with the ship to the very end this evening. I will miss it, but this probably for the best for my mental health and well being. Withdrawal is a bitch though.

    I hope rif dev makes a lemmy version. Rif was goated

    Between this and the student loan decision, it’s a rough night.

    I’ve been using Lemmy for the last few weeks and the amount content is really increasing plus several people are making apps so hopefully one will be close to Rif.

    Another former rif user here. Any suggestions for an lemmy app? Saw people talk about wefwef which I’m just trying.

    Thanks for the years of service with rif!

      I used RIF as well. I’m currently trying out Liftoff and it seems to work fairly well.

      I like Thunder at the moment with the compact setting. The slider for interacting with comments is a bit flakey though.

    I know, after literally a dozen years of using reddit almost exclusively via RIF this really feels like the end of an era. But hey, at least people did the work of coordinating alternatives before it all collapsed. Cheers to a new era!

    Me too, it was one of the first apps I would make sure to install on a new phone for 9 years.

    For me it was hands down the best. I’m a little disappointed that the developers are working on Tildes as opposed to Lemmy, but I can’t be mad, the value I got from Rif whenever I bought it all those years ago I feel like I stole their time with how well they took care of that app for years after purchase.

      I’ll check out tildes once the app drops for it. Good to have multiple different options.

      I’m planning on keeping it on my screen, the problem is that I keep opening it without thinking.
