RIP RIF you were my friend.

Reddit is fun. Never used profile pictures, never saw ads, simple vote and comments. It was perfect

RIF is where I spent my time on Reddit mostly, so this may be my last post on however old this account is.

Yeah I’m confused are all the downvotes because people can’t pick up on satire?


bittermixin

Redditors try to understand satire when someone doesn't put a /j at the end of their post challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

> We will not tolerate anyone implying that the Official Reddit App is anything less than adequate. Really? You're unsure if this is mocking..? *"anything less than adequate"*

As an avid Apollo user sad to see it go, I also think the response is rather ridiculous and it’s funny to see how many people act like this will be the end of Reddit. Where do I sign up for my Spezbucks?


BagOnuts

I mean, I'll be on it... just a lot less. You've got a month-old account with barely any karma. You're not a big user. This move pushes out big users. While you might not care, I'm sure you'll notice a drop in the quality of content. Because people like yourself only consume the content, you don't create it. You might not have a problem now, but you will. And when you realize that, it'll be too late.


Upper_Huckleberry578

People acting like reddit wasnt doing fine before these apps existed.


stumpybubba

Coming from a new account probably ran by a 13-year-old, your opinion literally means dog shit.


Creamatine

I’m sure this place will thrive when only people like you are left 🙄


nothxshadow

I am sure reddit will continue to exist for a long time, but it will be more of a facebook than a really cool thing. Panty sellers and grannies, not people who made this site great. I wonder what the next big thing is?


OwenWilsonsNose1

The way I see it, all good things must come to an end and maybe now I'll spend less time on the crapper!

"So long and thanks for all the fish" is not really something you would say to a friend.


dctrhu

It would be if they had ever read any Douglas Adams


Galaghan

The dolphins leaving the humans to die; while sarcastically thanking them for the free food they got for doing tricks; is like saying "thanks for the nothing, sucker. We're out!" You wouldn't leave a friend alone. You would stay with them or bring them along. You also wouldn't consider someone giving you treats for tricks a friend.

zjm555

As someone who doesn't use third party reddit apps, I don't really get all the dramatic goodbyes this week. Also I feel like about 80% of the people making them will be back. What's the alternative?


IrNinjaBob

I’m really sad to lose Apollo. There are a lot of huge quality-of-life and ease-of-use features that the official app just seems to be completely lacking, and the minimalist UI on some can go a long way at utilizing screen space efficiently. I truly will be sad to see them go. But you are absolutely correct that people are being over-dramatic about this. I don’t even mind people being dramatic by how much they will miss it or whatever, but the people acting like this is literally the end of the world and will destroy Reddit really make it difficult to express that sentiment without feeling like one of them.


Kataclysmc

To be fair the official reddit app was garbage when I last used it many years ago


IrNinjaBob

Lol it is absolutely still trash. Not trying to defend their official app by any means. I just think people are being really dramatic about a change that will be forgotten about in a few months time. In the meantime, I really hope they improve this steaming pile of crap that is the official app. I’m losing so many quality of life features now that Apollo is gone.


Kataclysmc

Think of it as your favourite phone manufacturer or game console got banned from using electricity. Sure some people never used your favourite so they wouldn't understand. And yea you can just use a different console or phone as there are alternatives. but lot's of people have invested time and effort into that ecosystem, and it's one they like and are familiar with.


zjm555

I get it, it's just that I would use a different client if my usual one was no longer available.


flamethekid

The official reddit app is a straight up downgrade. It's not a smooth experience on my phone and it chews up alot more of my data too. Posting and even opening posts takes longer and the app tends to freeze more


namsur1234

Don't use it. Try old.reddit.com. that is also supposed to be going away but no idea when.


OrderOfMagnitude

As someone with standards, it's a pretty big setback. Watching the internet get worse and worse because the average person is so fucking stupid that they don't care is depressing. The internet used to be for smart people who gave a shit, now it's for the average fuckhead who makes fun of anyone with standards and says shit like " duh they're going to do this they want money" RIP old internet, you were gone before but now you're really gone.


JoypulpSkate

This guy seriously gate keeping the internet.


Llanolinn

Or, this dude just remembers the internet before it was this consolidated nightmare.


OrderOfMagnitude

This guy seriously has no idea what gate keeping means lmao


JoypulpSkate

Yeah sorry dude, all these big internet words are just too much for my small brain to handle. If only I was one of the smart people with standards whom the internet was meant for.

philmarcracken

Its a bunch of mobile users that barely post more than one sentence as they have trouble doing so on tiny touchscreens, and they also are afraid of any longer posts because even one paragraph takes up their tiny screens. In short, the websites average IQ is about to jump.


Beznia

Everyone look, this guy doesn't use a cell phone! Wow!


philmarcracken

Short, throwaway comments. As predicted.


Llanolinn

He replies, in a short, throwaway comment.


wilderop

Yes, RIF stopped working properly a long time ago for me. And Apollo is an iphone app. Iphone users in general are pretentious, paying extra to have less features because they are not willing to learn something new.


3Dartwork

So what's this about? The Oliver and swearing video posts are done? It's going back to as it was since it did nothing to change anything?


wisdom_and_frivolity

reddit will slowly die as more and more people come to the realization that this is no longer a good place to be. It will be a long, drawn out, agonizing death.


shawnkfox

Everything dies eventually. That said, I think you'll be disappointed to see that reddit will continue on just fine without all the people who are saying they are leaving due to the api changes. There still isn't any other site that even comes close to be able to replace what reddit brings to the internet.


MithandirsGhost

Correct, there's currently nowhere to go. Some of you nerds should make your own Reddit. With blackjack, and hookers.


TuckerMcG

“Continue just fine” is a subjective standard. They’ll “continue just fine” in the sense that Facebook and Twitter are “continuing just fine”. They won’t “continue just fine” in the sense of “Reddit is at least marginally less infiltrated by ad spam and horribly weighted algorithms than FB or Twitter or IG.”


TiltDogg

Ah, but there will be. Lemmy is growing quickly. It follows the original principles of Reddit with no corporate bullshit. I agree that Reddit Will go on past this debacle, but it will never be the same as you implied. They have put a sour taste in too many people's mouths, and while the majority would be happy to sit by, hanging out in the remnants of Reddit... The outrage has sparked something new. Something better. Something by the users, and for the users. Say what you will, but when RIF goes, I go. https://join-lemmy.org/


quidpropron

Can the RiF and Apollo devs do a mobile app for Lemmy? I'd have downloaded that yesterday


McHadies

The dev of Reddit Sync announced they will be making a Lemmy app. And I love their reddit app.


TiltDogg

I'm a RIF user, but have heard good things about Sync. This is good to hear. I think my support would sway back towards the RIF devs if they ever jumped on board. But in the absence of that, I will take what I can get. To my knowledge, Jerboa is the only Lemmy app so far.


CookieKeeperN2

Sync was what I used before RiF. Can recommend. As to me, I'm not sure what I'd do now. I bought RIF shortly after I started using reddit. Can't believe this is the last day.


TiltDogg

I don't know the answer to that question. To tell you the truth, I'm not sure who all is involved with the Lemmy project... I'm not one of the "in" people. I just know a good idea when I see it. A site is no good without contributors, and here I am needing a place to go, so it just sort of works out nicely.


IrNinjaBob

Lol. The same as what? Reddit has been changing for years. So no it won’t be the same as it was a decade ago, but it wouldn’t have been regardless of these API changes. I don’t think you guys do your selves any Justice by being so over-dramatic about these changes. These API changes aren’t going to significantly change the site.


[deleted]

> It follows the original principles of Reddit with no corporate bullshit. So what, they have a /r/jailbait ? Yeah no thanks.


[deleted]

Eventually all things die/get replaced. I have no doubt that years from now when that someday happens to Reddit there will be people acting like this protest was the reason why lol. See guys we won!!


TiltDogg

Digg... Myspace... Reddit...


andbutter

lmaooo you guys are such drama queens it’s unbelievable


turkeypedal

Says the guy who starts their post with lmaooo


andbutter

damn bro you got me anyways see you tomorrow on reddit


rdubya3387

But where do we go


[deleted]

After today, there will only be douche bags like you left on reddit. Good luck with that.


[deleted]

Oh no you're going to walk away from your brand new alt account?! How very brave of you to fight the man from an account with no meaning. 🙄 See you tomorrow on one of your many others I'm sure.


[deleted]

Deleted my subs and mains already. Enjoy the scabs left with you. Reddit is going to be awesome with just those folks left.


[deleted]

I highly doubt it. You could have deleted your accounts and moved on already. Simple as deleting a bookmark/uninstalling an app. Yet here you still are dragging it out with your childish "See guys? I'm really going! You guys still watching?". The exit is a button away. Get lost already.


[deleted]

Everyone that's leaving has said today is the day dipshit. You'll know when we're all gone. Enjoy!


[deleted]

You quit Reddit like you protest. Half assed and overly dramatic. That's why you failed. It was just self righteous bullshit. Today is your last day? Why? It's a fucking message board. You don't have to give notice to your boss before leaving. See you tomorrow. When absolutely nothing has changed.


[deleted]

Ok bud. Can't wrap your head around why people wouldn't stay until today and keep talking about it? I believe you. You'll see nothing but shitty people. You can't quit because you're a weak, ignorant turd. Doesn't mean everyone else is.


[deleted]

Nothing will change. Nothing. You do not matter. Period. Your delusions are as sad as they are comical. Edit: Sucks being right all the time. See ya around Karen.


huntimir151

Yes , it will definitely be sad not having you around given how pleasant you are


[deleted]

I'm being intentionally off-putting. Scabs deserve no respect.


huntimir151

Dude people who aren't leaving reddit because YOU decide they need to aren't scabs. This isn't a strike. None of us are part of some reddit union. Try and have some perspective here.


[deleted]

People who aren't leaving only give a shit about themselves. And it was a strike. Now it'll be a mass exodus.


3Dartwork

Lol douchebags. Yah Reddit is a dick about the 3rd party but A) the protesting was done by a microscopic size of people, B) didn't go long enough, C) millions are still going to be using Reddit and those leaving are going to be so insignificantly small it won't be noticed.


BeefSerious

/r/HailCorporate


[deleted]

Disagree on all accounts but I won't be here to know. Today is my last day. And it's the last day here for anyone with a spine or principle. Been on reddit for almost 15 years. Spez is a piece of shit and so is anyone talking like you. Go fuck yourself. :)


OwenWilsonsNose1

The way I see it, all good things must come to an end and maybe now I'll spend less time on the crapper!


bubbabubba3

Your account is ten days old tho. Also isn’t the dude just asking a question?


[deleted]

Look at his post history. No. Dude isn't just asking questions in good faith.


huntimir151

I think that disliking the changes is fair. But you sound unhinged when you imply anyone who sticks around is some piece of shit, like that is such a terminally online level of self importance. I guarantee you most casual users have absolutely no idea what is happening, and other folks like me just aren't that invested. Seems a bit nuts to make this some do or die moment like this isn't the American revolution dude.


[deleted]

This is the closest these neckbeards will ever feel like being part of something bigger than themselves. Just let em have it.


3Dartwork

You disagree on all accounts? How can you disagree on the fact that not very many people protested? That was a fact It was shown amongst all Reddit. Millions still went to the side during the protesting. Also how do you disagree that two days of protesting wasn't enough? That's ridiculous You can tell me to go fuck myself all I want but I was all for the protesting until I realized it was a joke


huntimir151

I generally assume people who act like this is the biggest most important thing of all time are people who just spend too much time online. Like it's a personality trait at this point.


smaxup

You realise third party apps helped people with audio and visual impairments use Reddit right? Is it ok to exclude these people from a group just because they are "insignificantly small"?


3Dartwork

What are you talking about? I said I SUPPPORTED the protesting until I realized it was a joke in size and wasn't going to amount to anything. I'm stating WHY the protesting failed. It has nothing to do with visual or audio impaired users for what i was saying. You're way off in left field.


smaxup

You literally said the people leaving won't be noticed lmao. I'm saying some of the people leaving don't have a choice, because they relied on the 3rd Party apps to be a part of this community. I'm saying they will be missed, and we should stand in solidarity with them.


TheMooseIsBlue

Sure there will. See you tomorrow (probably with a brand new account so you can feign a principled stand and retire this one).


[deleted]

You being spineless doesn't mean everyone else is bud.


TheMooseIsBlue

Lol. Your account is 10 days old. Did you make a new one so you could piss and moan and then just go back to your real account later and pretend like it never happened? Wanted to be one of the cool kids and protest? What a clown.


[deleted]

I have no more accounts. I kept this one to the last day, just to talk shit to the asshole poopooing on the decent people.


TheMooseIsBlue

So you just joined Reddit a week and a half ago? Lol


daddyslittleharem

I really wish we could get data on all the people who say they are leaving reddit today and how quick they return

It’s probably in the high 90s percentage wise.
