That's it folks. RIF has stopped working.
Reddit is no longer fun.

I've been on reddit for 17 years, I can't remember when I bought RIF. It was a good run.

For actual? Infinity still works, I guess they shut off at different times?

But yeah RIP legend

infinity plans to switch to a subscription model. might be they stay working.

I'm not sure who they're doing it for, I'm pretty sure at least 99% of the people that used it in the first place are now done with Reddit or only use old.reddit.com (until that socket disappears too)

Logged out of my account on RIF and it started working again.

Death throes?

o7 rip to the primary way i used reddit for over 10 years

Well that 's it for me. I blocked Reddit on my PC with UBlock Origin, and the only time I would look at Reddit would be through RIF. I can only hope for an app so good for kbin and the Fediverse.

Boost for Reddit still works for me somehow

@Teppic RIF (RES when on PC) .
was basically my reddit experience for 9-10ish years. RIF also used to pay money to reddit before spez took over from Yishan. Dumbass cut off a revenue stream for nothing and fucked over users in the process. Shitty mobile web + ad blockers from here on out if I use the site.

Used it on every phone since my Motorola Droid. It will be missed.

I think I started on iPhone 3, if that's possible. Alien blue sounds too familiar to me and I think I read it was iOS. Means I've been around longer than the 10 years on rif, if my memory is correct. End of the day it's a damn shame, greed everywhere you look, amazing how one person or a few can affect thousands so easily.

For some reason RIF is working for me again as long as I'm not logged in. It stops working when I try to login.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Same for me, not sure how long it will last...
