    as a soon-to-be former user of RIF, i will certainly miss the simplistic design and the ease of use of the app. o7

    RIF has been my app of choice for 10 years. I hope that the developers jump on over and create a Lemmy version. Until then I am using Jerboa and it is working well enough. Death to Reddit, Long Live the Fediverse!

        Tildes is really a great place. But it being invite only was probably the worst thing for it if it wanted growth. People couldn’t get on Tildes so they came to places like Lemmy or Kbin or one of the others.

          Tildes was actively not looking for exponential growth, and the drop in quality that sometimes accompanies it. It is not a Reddit alternative for most folks, who use it for cat pics, star wars memes, and outrage porn. It is for a niche of users who prefer slightly longer form, quality content, and knee jerk reactions and comments aren’t as valued over there. I like it, but both Lemmy and Tildes complement each other well rather than being directly against each other. Worst case, one can always browse Tildes without logging in. I don’t know why people rush to make accounts immediately, without waiting to get a vibe of the space.

    I’m pretty sure that the RIF developer is working on an app for Tildes, which is an invite-only non-profit reddit alternative.

      Tildes and bluesky are missing the boat by being invite only at this time. They could have had the migration by being better developed alternatives. Instead they’re losing everything to lemmy and kbin.

      Yeah, I understand they would struggle to scale this suddenly for the influx. Like lemmy and kbin did, but the alternative is that they’re now forgotten and missed the boat.

        Idk man. I got a tildes invite and I spend a ton more time on there than here, the fediverse seemed to inherit all the bad parts of reddit culture, whereas tildes uses the slow growth and strict moderation to maintain a higher standard of discussion.

    End of an era. Glad Lemmy is shaping up to be a good replacement. Seems a lot of the homies that used reddit when it was actually reddit migrated here
