Don_DickleEx Redditors of Lemmy what made you come on over? What happened at Reddit that you made the switch?
Reddit is (no longer) Fun.
Like others, the API change was the final straw. I used Reddit is Fun (RIF) for years, even paid for the full version, because both the official Reddit app and the mobile web interface were terrible. I was also using the old web interface with the Reddit Enhancement Suite, and that went on “maintenance mode”. Overall, Reddit just reached a point that the enshitification was getting to be too much for me to stomach. So, here I am.

RIF clan, represent!
I haven’t tried them all, but I’ve been using Boost. What app are you using to recreate that RIF feel?
I started using Summit and it was good enough that I stuck with it.
gedaliyahI feel like Summit is one of the most underrated apps. It’s been solid all around and steadily improving since the start.
NovaPrimeI’ve found Thunder to be a great replacement with some modern, gesture friendly UX enhancements.
DaleGribble88Connect for Lemmy on my Android phone has worked great! The interface is almost, but not quite, 1:1 with RIF.
It was pretty buggy at launch, but here we are about a year out, and I’m not sure if I remember the what/when the last bug I encountered was. That is to say, the devs for connect are on top of stuff with regular updates which is nice.
I tried connect first, but maybe that’s when it was buggy, because I switched to Boost. I guess there’s nothing wrong with Boost, but sometimes it gets weird interacting with embedded pics and unusual text.
