Good bye to an old friend :(

Rip RIF you'll be remembered

We’ve been here before. Some of us old fucks have gone from BBS to IRC to sites like SA, GenMay, Digg, Reddit. It’s jus the nature of the beast.
Gonna miss the solid App support Reddit had but it’s only a matter of time before there are many great options for Lenny. Wefwef while browser based is actually really nice!

I'm a RiF refugee too. Used it for almost a decade, now that it's gone I find the official app to be very difficult to use.
The Fediverse has been really cool and I'm glad I took the jump. I was apprehensive at first, but I've found Lemmy to be pretty fun so far!
- I think this is the only poppinkream I've ever seen that doesn't have citations all over it.
- Any advice for someone who just made that same jump?
  
  I stated using Jerboa*, which feels a little similar in spirit. Had to jump trough some hoops though, as your login server needs at least version 0.18 to work.

used RIF for 7 years, tried using the official app but RIF was just so much better. when i uninstalled it two weeks out of protest, it really felt like i had to say goodbye to an old friend. i do enjoy lemmy, but...

This is my sadness.

Just gonna throw one up for the dark mode homies. Good bye rif, you will be missed.

Excited for the sync Lemmy app
- What do you think about voyager?
