Came here because RIF shut down and I can't believe how bad the regular reddit app is. Here's hoping that Lemmy is the new reddit!

I really truly appreciate how RIF changed my experience with Reddit and allowed me to curate my front page.

Was really struggling with awful content being pushed at me, but I still wanted to stay connected with the outside world. RIF allowed me filter out harmful stuff and make the whole thing so much better.

I miss my support communities & super niche interest subs. A lot. But I'm at least thankful that I got to experience them while I could.

Thank you, RIF!

Is there a chance that the dev can rewrite rif for lemmy? I love rif, my favorite app. I'm not using some Lemmy app and Im not loving it

I tried Jerboa, Liftoff and Connect Connect is the best one so far. I'm inclined to try Boost and Sync, those are repurposed reddit apps, but Connect is pretty decent.

PSA: Boost is best.

Throwing in my appreciation for the best damn Reddit app there ever was.

RIF is why I'm here, I deleted it from my front page, realized I hated going to the reddit website, and looked for something better.

I know he's working on something different, for a different site, but I also hope he's considering a LIF or something like that.

Thank you talklittle! You made redditing so enjoyable with RiF. I was introduced to your app about a decade ago and never stopped using it. I spent years writing exhaustive and informative comments, none of it would've been possible without the functionality of RiF.

I'm glad to see you on the Fediverse now :)
