Joining the party as RIF kicks the bed :')
Rif has been reddit for me for the past 10 ish years now, opened the app today to see error 429.
Good to be here :)
Ngl Jerboa is quite similar to RiF, so I'm definitely settling in well.
Using wefwef for now, thanks for the recommendation will give it a gander.
I love how quickly the community is coming up with replacements for apps and the service as a whole that people are used to.
Is wefwef an android or iOS app? I'm using jerboa, but heard about the virtues of wefwef and wanted to try it.
It's a PWA(Progressive Web App) that functions through the browser and can be installed as an application that is just a wrapper around the browser.
All that to say it works on both Android and iOs, using it on Android myself.
Testing reply from wefwef. What a strange way to run an App!
Hope you've found the install button, it becomes more like a normal app once you can launch it directly from the app drawer instead of through the browser
Yeah I did. Tbh, I used reddit is fun, and the gesture system on wefwef is a little confusing.
I'm really fucking sad about rif :(
Yeah, same tbh. I think I still had some hope that the API changes would get reversed even as the announcements from RiF/Apollo kept trickling in. I just wanted to lurk on my favourite app forever :(
Definitely like Jerboa so far. Just spent the past hour searching and joining tons of channels.
Jerboa stopped working for me today for whatever reason so I switched to Connect and actually think I like it better so far.
I just wish there was a decent iOS app for lemmy that worked on iOS 15.
Try wefwef (name sucks). It's a progressive web app so version shouldnt matter.

You're all the technology-savvy intelligent ones who figured out Lemmy right away, months ago. I was trying to get into Lemmy even before July 1st but finally figured it out today November 10th! I finally got into Lemmy today. It was nearly as difficult as applying & repeatedly being rejected for competitive employment somewhere. sheesh.
Very sad to say goodby to RIF after 9 years. Lets get this party started and I got some learning to do in this new environment.
Gonna miss RIF.
Yup. Little pang of sadness seeing it finally gone. I got years of procrastination out of that app.
Me too.
Sync for android here
The Dev from Sync announced a new Lemmy app it's actually a WIP. Just wait a few weeks.
And it's out now :) It works brilliantly, as you'd expect.
