…but I don’t want to get rid of it! Been using RIF since 2011 and it’d feel so weird to take it off my home screen. I tried the Reddit app but it pollutes the front page with so much unnecessary shit that it becomes a chore to browse. Liking the look of Lemmy so far though.

        Connect for Lemmy, turn on List View and the AMOLED theme and it gets pretty close to the RiF experience. Not 1 for 1, but close enough for what I’m doing. I also put it in the spot RiF has been for 10 years 😞.

        I’ve been using Jerboa and it’s working out well. I’ve tried the connect for Lemmy app, but once I tried making a long comment and the text went behind my keypad and I couldn’t scroll, so I couldn’t see what I was typing. I’m always on the lookout for more apps and trying them out until I find one I really like. I’m looking forward to seeing Sync for Lemmy up in action.

        I’ve been using Liftoff as it’s the closest to how RIF felt to me. I was able to go in the settings and switch the posts to compact and have the font sizes smaller to get it as close to RIF as possible.

        I don’t really like the apps, but if you want an app, you can add your main instance to homescreen and its essentially an app, just save your lemmy password in your browser and its no different from an app.

        It’s definitely heavily geared towards iOS design principles, but if you can get past that wefwef.app has been the most stable and smooth experience I’ve found, despite being a PWA and not a native app.

        Connect for lemmy has worked better for me than jerboa, but that could also be me (barely) learning how to navigate.

        There’s also the migration hugging everything to death to consider, but hug or no, connect for lemmy has worked quite well for me on Android!

    I moved Connect for Lemmy into the same spot and moved RIF to the 2nd page.

    I can’t bring myself to delete it yet, so that’s where it lives for now.

    I deleted RIF today, and downloaded Liftoff. It’s not perfect but maybe it will get better. If people wanted to shut off public discourse on social media like Farcebook/Reddit/Twit, then they succeeded.

      I went into the app settings and cleared the default links to achieve the same. Felt too sad to delete the app entirely :(

    Yes, but surprisingly my rig still works to see the homepage and saved my fav subs, just can’t logon to post or vote. So it’s still not the same.

    I did see some posts about some how patching rif to a “vanced” version I wanna check out so I can keep tabs on other communities that are migrating while I continue transitioning over to lemmy

    I just replaced it with Jerboa, although I keep going to wefwef nowadays since it’s such a good web app

    Haven’t deleted it as it’s still working when not logged in. Only really used RiF for the NSFW subs anyway.

    I put the connect app where I had rif on my phone so I press that instead.

    I do still get confused when it’s not rif.

    I keep it around so that when I click reddit links in Google they go to RIF instead of the dog shite mobile site. Can’t log in or comment though.

    I hid it from the app drawer/list, so I can only get to it by searching or with a link.

        Stealth (com.cosmos.unreddit) has a switch for web scraping mode, however reddit being left as only a really badly ran potemkin village gives the site an uneasy feeling

        Well I haven’t noticed lol. Feel less and less reason to go back to reddit. Lemmy is pretty great.
