RIF.... how long has it been, old friend?

When I first found out about Reddit, it was in the form of "Rage Comics". That was sometime in 2009-2010 I believe. I loved rage comics, and would be glued to my phone reading all the different silly things people would come up with. About a year later, I learned about RIF and it's small community. I had never left since.

I'll miss you RIF.... Gone but never forgotten </3

It’s the same for me. I discovered what Reddit was because of a rage comics app. I’ve used pretty much all of the apps, such as Baconreader, Alien Blue, but ultimately settled on RIF for Android and Apollo on iOS. I am currently using Memmy, but I really hope that there’s an equivalent for RIF, perhaps a LIF?
