Picked up premium last week in support. Thanks for all you did!
RIF.... how long has it been, old friend?
When I first found out about Reddit, it was in the form of "Rage Comics". That was sometime in 2009-2010 I believe. I loved rage comics, and would be glued to my phone reading all the different silly things people would come up with. About a year later, I learned about RIF and it's small community. I had never left since.
I'll miss you RIF.... Gone but never forgotten </3
It’s the same for me. I discovered what Reddit was because of a rage comics app. I’ve used pretty much all of the apps, such as Baconreader, Alien Blue, but ultimately settled on RIF for Android and Apollo on iOS. I am currently using Memmy, but I really hope that there’s an equivalent for RIF, perhaps a LIF?
it really makes me sad. I can't imagine how you feel. 14 years is a long fucking time.
I'll have that icon in my drawer as long as I have this phone.
Thanks for all the fish
I used rif for 12 years. Never found an app that suited me more.
Same here, I tried a heap of Reddit apps, and RIF nailed the GUI down, and made reading a pleasure, you could browse for hrs, then go for more hrs, it was just perfect.
RIP RIF you were the GOAT
Ripe in Pisces.
I finally had to uninstall because I kept opening the app out of habit. But thank you, RIF, for all the good times.
PSA: Boost is best.
I still have not uninstalled the app..it does not work but I keep in memoriam.
