Likewise. RIF pretty much was Reddit for me so far as regular browsing goes. I may still occasionally use old Reddit on desktop but I've heard rumours that may go as well, with the continued enshittification of Reddit.

Didn't feel like waiting for the end, been here a few weeks now.
Yeah I followed the link too. Didn't know about lemmy before RIF closed

Is this and RIF style app for here?
It's one of many. Most of them see the same content even if they're on different servers, so no need to stress about missing out. Happy exploring!
Jerboa is very RiF like. Unfortunately if you use Lemmy.world it won't work until that instance updates. Currently on Connect for lemmy and it is ok.
I definitely miss Jerboa. But the past month has already brought so much chaos to my internet use. What's a little more?
It's working now!!

Wow, talk about a nostalgic sounding community name.
I have no idea what I'm doing, but I made it here. I hope to understand instances and whether I need to create other accounts soon.
The creator of sync for reddit is creating a similar app for lemmy, you can sign up for any updates on the sync community here. I plan on downloading that when it comes out.
Edit: I just downloaded connected for lemmy on the Google play store, working great so far!
I'm on the Connect train right now as well and so far it's not bad. I'm having fun finding new spaces to go, feels like Reddit thirteen years ago when I first joined. More discussion based, frontpage of the lemmy version of r/all isn't plagued by TikTok videos.

Just made my account too. RIP RIF, you were good to me.
Now I'm excited to see what this Lemmy.world is all about - does it have an app on the Play store?

Hello, fellower RIF users.
Time to see what this place has. Kinda like moving into a new house.
RIF was the app that I used when I decided to go deeper into Reddit. Been using it for the past 7 years until today. You will be missed.
I'm proud to be done with reddit. I'm eagerly exploring my new addiction. I'm a lemon head.
Lemon head? Is that what we're called?
I can live with that.
