Rif kept working throughout a lot of the day yesterday but I finally had a minute yesterday evening, very late, and sat down and launched the app... It worked for a few moments but alas that was only the cached posts. Soon it stopped, for good.
It was very sad uninstalling rif, I can't fathom the obscene amount of hours spent using it, endlessly scrolling my carefully curated subs, be it while pooping, waiting for someone, watching something dumb, or in the middle of the night unable to sleep.
Sigh.
Hey, there's lots of nice people and good magazines and fewer bots and trolls over here, so we'll all be fine.
Yeah I didnt delete anything either, but if people don't go back that's what will really affect reddit in the long run. They can sit on their precious marketable content but if it stagnates it won't be worth squat after a while.
What they did to The_Donald where Spez edited comments to make the sub seem to be inciting violence, so he had an excuse to ban it, is a prime example and should be a red flag regardless of someone's politics.
The banning from several subs automatically of people who joined joke subs like "ChurchofCovid" is also a prime example.
Very hostile to differing political opinions.
I don't think it's a social media site any more, I think it's a propaganda site and a data harvesting operation.
This is the Reddit app. They are making it really easy to want to migrate (lemmy.world) en

The protests worked, and so did moving/editing/deleting our old content. As one person complains,...
Apollo was always reddit (i.imgur.com) en
I am filled with a sadness at losing Apollo but it will always amuse me that searching reddit showed the apollo app.
I definitely think r/gaming has the biggest banger of a privated notice (media.kbin.social) en
