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.
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.
https://wefwef.app/
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 :(
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.
Gonna miss RIF.
Me too.
Yup. Little pang of sadness seeing it finally gone. I got years of procrastination out of that app.
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.
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.
