Thank you everyone for your support since 2009.
Thank you to /u/anon_smithsonian in particular for taking care of everyone on /r/redditisfun.
RIF, you're quirky and rough around the edges, but you've always gotten the job done. You know how to get out of the way and show people the articles, discussions, pictures, and videos they came for.
You have the silliest name, but we love you all the more for it. RIF will always be fun in our hearts.
RIF has been so much of my life.
I'm honored that so many of you have felt the same way.
Thank you for sharing this journey with me. It's been fun.
You're viewing a single thread.
Thank you, RIF was my main source of entrainment for 11 years. I guess you can say all good things come to an end, and RIF was most definitely something I enjoyed.
Reddit has made it clear that profit is above all and users be damned. I say launch your IPO and let us watch the firey demise of what was once a good platform. Reddit will become a glorified hell hole of corporate shills (1000x worse than it is now). This may be a blessing in disguise, and create new opportunities for the development of better apps, like an app for Lemmy!
Anyway, rant is over, and thank so so so much for RIF. I cant wait to see what you develop next!
