I loved RIF and was addicted to Reddit. But they dumped me and I am scorned and will never forgive reddit! Fuck reddit and I hope it dies.
Same same !
When reddit announced that they were going public I knew the end was nigh. Money corrupts everything. What made reddit cool was the users and reddit just wanted to suck that dry. I was happy to leave but I pretty much just lurked on Reddit so it wasn’t that hard.
Man two years, feels so much shorter
2000s were only 5 years ago
And the nineties 15 years ago.
It’s been 2 years already?!
Exactly !!
Miss RIF so much.
We should make our own RIF
Would have to start from scratch as RIF was not open source and now abandoned as far as I know.
I still use RIF
Revanced ftw. Although some things stopped working, /r/random stopped working
Yep that’s me. RIF was so good. Why would a website cannibalize itself like this?
$$$
Boost was taken away for Reddit and swiftly given back to me for Lemmy. Bless the Boost devs and Lemmy hosts for saving me from the official Reddit experience 🤢
I still miss rif 😭
I still use rif. You can get the app as an apk, and patch it to replace the original API key with your own using something like vanced. I already had my key from before the debacle, not sure how you get one these days. Anyway, it did give me some trouble while logging in, but eventually it worked.
This method stopped working for me 2 months ago. Something to do with headers (browser-agent), but didn’t bother fixing
Which part broke exactly? Because I can confirm the one on my tablet, which I installed a long time ago, still works. Haven’t installed it on my current phone which I got not too long ago, so I’m wondering if it’s gonna be a problem.
All of it. Failed to load any content from reddit.
Likely related to this:

It’s stopped working for me twice but i repeated the procedure to change the user agent or app key or whatever and re patch the app and it works again
Baconreader refugee here
I loved that app and I still miss it (and reddit) in some ways, but the API Apocalypse was when I decided I had to take a moral stand and quit. No way was I going to be railroaded into the first-party app full of ads and nonsense.
I haven’t looked back since.
Ditto.
For me it was Apollo
Apollo walked so Voyager could run
WHERE THE FUCK IS LEMMY IS FUN
Jebora mostly
Yeah, I went straight from rif to jerboa. I tried the other early apps but they were all very “cardy”
I use voyager closest to BaconReader
I was sync for me, but hell yeah, it’s been a good couple of years.
Hey that’s me
Me too! Although I’ve mostly lurked this whole time until I finally made an acc this month
ditto, Hi!
That was me
Sync FTW
It was great until the Dev abandoned it. It hasn’t been updated in 15 months. 😡 😭
Oh wow, I didn’t even notice
Really? Do posts show as read for you? Maybe Lemmy.world is still running an old version of Lemmy. Once sh.itjust.works patched to a new version 8 or 9 months ago, Sync became completely unusable for me.
Oh fuck. That is really going to suck once I can’t use it:/
Edit: yes, posts are marked as read
Huh weird. I’ve got an account on .world and if I use that with Sync, posts don’t show get marked as read for me. Wonder what I’m doing wrong.
didn’t all 3rd party apps stop working
Comet for Reddit worked for much longer than most others. Had it on my mothers ipad and browsed reddit when i visited her.
RIF still works with some twaks, you need to patch it with an API key similar to youtube vanced and then it works. though some people report the method stopped working recently. Any way its a lost cause.
