The writing was on the wall when reddit restricted buying awards in anything but the official app. For some reason, I even have a vivid recollection of where I was in the world when that went down.
Back in 2014 RIF was $2 one time purchase for a completely ad free experience. I knew that couldn’t last forever, but I enjoyed the 9 years I did have.
Interesting. Just looked at Mlem for a minute and for some reason the Voyager UI agrees with me more.
The funny thing is Mlem offers higher contrast between different UI elements yet it is easier for me to differentiate between those elements in the lower contrast way that Voyager presents them.
I miss RiF sometimes :[

On the toilet?
Close! I was supposed to be working at the time.
I still have the app on my phone
Just in case
Right after S2 of Firefly
Me too. I click a reddit link, and the app opens to remind me
Oh man, I’m jealous. I uninstalled the app, but I’m pretty sure you can look up workarounds to make the app still work if you have it on your phone.
ReVanced has a project for it. It’s janky, but it works. For now.
RIP RiF.
I miss Apollo. Voyager is nearly as great and is open source so it’s not all bad. Still miss it though…
Yeah Voyager needs more polish. I have found Mlem to be more spiritual of the successor in terms of ui design.

Same… Sync is my life now
I’m lucky, Boost was my app of choice. Now I just use it for Lemmy instead.
Which is how I learned about Lemmy. I opened Boost one day and was like… Wait, something’s off. : )
