A message Thank you everyone for your support since 2009.
Thank you to /u/anon_smithsonian in particular for taking care of everyone on /r/redditisfun.
RIF, you’re quirky and rough around the edges, but you’ve always gotten the job done. You know how to get out of the way and show people the articles, discussions, pictures, and videos they came for.
You have the silliest name, but we love you all the more for it. RIF will always be fun in our hearts.
RIF has been so much of my life.
I’m honored that so many of you have felt the same way.
Thank you for sharing this journey with me. It’s been fun.
(This space will be updated on July 1.)
Been a Reddit is Fun good user for over a decade. Is by far been my most used app. Earlier editions had the little alien in the corner, and I have three phones with that logo burned into the screen. I really have been enjoying the growth of Lemmy/Fediverse, and it reminds me honestly of early Reddit. But still it’s bittersweet losing RiF and how drastically the community of Reddit has changed over the last few months
I never even heard of reddit when I was introduced to rif. Only reddit I know. I didn’t really try others, didn’t need to. It was perfectly simple. Thank you and now on to new and better things, hopefully
I don’t even remember buying premium for it it was so long ago and its been my go fo app forever. I miss it but I just have to remember spez killed it not the devs.
I know a lot of the devs are trying their hands at Fediverse apps, id love to see what talklittle could do if he tried
Hopefully I will see RIF on the other side.
