Since Reddit is fun was killed I refuse to go back. You don’t kill a damn near perfect UI and get to keep my internet traffic.

RIF was Reddit for me. Now that it’s dead, so is Reddit.

I was bitter about RiF but it didn’t really sink in that I was not returning until I realized it was all just in bad faith. No point in going back somewhere that doesn’t respect third-party apps or its own users. All the developments since then have made that very clear.

That was it for me too. If there was a transition and they wanted to enshittify gracefully because money, investment pressure, capitalism… I get it.

But to completely cunt your way through the process in a short time. Bad form. I wish them ill.

Same. What do you use now for Lemmy? I’m using Connect and while it’s not perfect, I like it for what it is.

I use Sync and it’s amazing, reminds me of RIF but has some small QoL improvements that I wish RIF had

I used to use Infinity so Eternity was the obvious pick, and it has delivered so far.

I use Jerboa.

It’s fully open source and seems to support every feature so I don’t feel the need to switch to Sync.
