Thank you Apollo
Just went to open the app and it force closes, and so ends my chapter of Reddit. Thank you Christian for the most amazing app experience ever.

I will miss it.
Fuck Reddit.
It’s the Golden Girls theme song, but also in a way accurate. Rif was my first introduction to reddit. And the first app I downloaded on every phone. One I used…probably too often haha. Don’t confront me with that data, I’m not ready yet. But through the past decade it’s led me to some extraordinary discoveries, been a...
I joined reddit when I was 13, I'm 23 now. Reddit is fun was an amazing app, I made a lot of friends, laughed, cried, saw some shit that scarred me for life and I loved it. Its crazy for me because I never realized until now how much of an impact it had on my life. I hope that Lemmy takes off, because I already miss rif. Truly...
They finally cut access....
Typing this from the RIF browser, after making my account here via the RIF browser....
RIF was the first app I would download on each of my phones. It was among the first apps I paid for....
Been wanting to leave the platform for a long time. The Fediverse in it’s many shapes and forms has rid me of that desire....
Your app made reddit useable. Hopefully reddit realizes how badly they fucked up.
Thanks for all the fond memories. Closest thing I’ve seen to a perfect app and one of the best purchases I’ve made....
It was one of the few apps I had on my first ever smart phone. An HTC Inspire. It never left any device I had from then on out. Forgot my old Google account from it and lost my first paid version license. So I bought it again....
Used RIF since 2012, never knew platinum was a thing until the very end. I hope the $3 is a good enough thank you for supporting my reddit addiction for over a decade.
I suspect I echo the thoughts of many users, but to me, RIF really was reddit. It was an app I downloaded from a friend’s recommendation in probably 2013, and is usually the first install whenever ri switch phones, also boasting pride of place right below where my thumb naturally rests on my home screen....
Your app will be sorely missed!
RIF was important to me in a way that's hard to describe. I will always consider it the pinnacle of minimalism functional design. and it was not function over form either, RIF looked amazing....
Thanks for everything RIF. You made Reddit usable, and, well..fun. Going to miss it, and without RIF I will simply not be using reddit anymore on mobile. I refuse to use the official app, I'd rather just fill that time with something else. Good luck in your future endeavours, RIF team.
For the past ~2 weeks or so I’ve stayed away from reddit (which used to occupy one to two hours a day of my time). I stopped by today for one final nostalgic use of RIF.
I really almost cried. So dramatic but fuck I’m sad. It was like an hour after I told him it’s my last day on reddit....
There is a certain adVanced YouTube manager that can patch the APK of the official app to remove ads. Just my 2¢
Here’s hoping for a Lemmy version
RIF was the only reddit mobile app I've used in my 12 years on the site, absolutely going to miss it.
Everyone was there so I was but now that they moved I’m so happy fuck reddit and I hope it dies
I've spent more time on RIF than on any other app. It will be sorely missed.
Created this account just to say thank you RIF team. Been using it for many years to the point where I thought this IS reddit. Sad that they act up now and we’re loosing you. Only the best wishes for the team, good luck for your future.
