That's it folks. RIF has stopped working.
Reddit is no longer fun.

RIF was a great app. Here's to hoping we bring all the best parts of Reddit across and continue the fun!

For some reason RIF is working for me again as long as I'm not logged in. It stops working when I try to login.

For actual? Infinity still works, I guess they shut off at different times?

But yeah RIP legend

infinity plans to switch to a subscription model. might be they stay working.

I'm not sure who they're doing it for, I'm pretty sure at least 99% of the people that used it in the first place are now done with Reddit or only use old.reddit.com (until that socket disappears too)

Used it on every phone since my Motorola Droid. It will be missed.

I think I started on iPhone 3, if that's possible. Alien blue sounds too familiar to me and I think I read it was iOS. Means I've been around longer than the 10 years on rif, if my memory is correct. End of the day it's a damn shame, greed everywhere you look, amazing how one person or a few can affect thousands so easily.

o7 rip to the primary way i used reddit for over 10 years

[–] Jonny@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Well that 's it for me. I blocked Reddit on my PC with UBlock Origin, and the only time I would look at Reddit would be through RIF. I can only hope for an app so good for kbin and the Fediverse.

@Teppic RIF (RES when on PC) .
was basically my reddit experience for 9-10ish years. RIF also used to pay money to reddit before spez took over from Yishan. Dumbass cut off a revenue stream for nothing and fucked over users in the process. Shitty mobile web + ad blockers from here on out if I use the site.

Logged out of my account on RIF and it started working again.

Death throes?

[–] Fatbuddha@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The Creator of RIF says they are working on tildes.net, I don't believe that's part of the fediverse sadly. I really know very little about tildes anyone know why they would choose that over trying to build for Lemmy or kbin?

[–] vlakas@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago
