I used to browse reddit on rif for years before the official app even released. The official app is like “can I have a reddit, mom?” - “we have reddit at home” Reddit at home: takes an eternity to load even if it’s a text post, keeps recommending me stuff I didn’t sub to, full of ads, screen is filled with full sized images so it takes a lot longer to see posts that I’m willing to click on…
I miss rif. I used to lurk and look at memes on rif all the time, occasionally asking for advice on relationships or jobs or whatnot. I’m considering quitting reddit altogether, just found out about Lemmy. Is there a lotr memes or prequel memes community over here?
I downloaded “jerboa” which is modeled after RIF I think. Lemmy is pretty good so far but doesn’t have as much content and the app is a bit slower than RIF.
I’m hopeful that it grows into a good replacement. It’s certainly off to a good start. There’s a starwars memes page though like I said it has a lot less content.
