RiF user since 2011. I'm now trying replacement apps for Lemmy. Liftoff and Jerboa look pretty good. Am trying Connect for Lemmy, but it looks super buggy right now.
Do you guys recommend any other app to browse Lemmy from the Google Play Store?

The app store apps are a little janky still or now. I just started using wefwef.app (it's a pwa. Just put wefwef.app in your browser) and it's been the best so far. It's a recreation of alien blue for iOS.
I'm here as well. I loved the design and feel of RIF.
Rest in peace RIF.
Reddit is now officially dead to me. It was a fun ride while it lasted.
11 years of Reddit. 42k karma. A top 10 comment in the top 10 posts of all time. Happy to be here and build this up!
Thanks for having us
Just created a profile, I was using rif last night when suddenly I got the api error code, really sad to see it go.
I really hope lemmy replaces reddit, plenty of us here but we need more growth.
Liking it so far.

Thank you! I'm so sad to see RiF go. I'm hopeful for a bright future.
Does anyone have a good Lemmy App? I have tried Connect and it is okay, but it is no RIF.

Reddit is Fun is still working for me. I can browse subreddits but I can't post or login.

Switched from reddit to here. Hopefully we'll see something similar to Rif for lemmy. Fuck reddit and fuck spez.
I suggest giving wefwef a try. It's a web app and it seems really solid. I came here from Apollo, but used rif prior to that and this app seems really nice.

Any good Lemmy app replacing rif? Looking for the ability to show tow rows of cards like rif. I seem to be in the minority for using that feature.
wefwef in compact mode is really similar to RIF. Highly suggest you try it out.
Download Connect for Lemmy, I think reverse row is what you want. You can change it in the settings. I used RIF the same way

I have no idea what I'm doing, but I made it here. I hope to understand instances and whether I need to create other accounts soon.
You'll get it in no time. The best way I've seen it described is email. You can have outlook. I can have Juno. Our pal can have aol. But we can all still talk to each other and see the same emails just as tho we all had the same email provider. Same thing here with instances. They're each like an individual Reddit but we can all see them (for the most part, some have been blocked by others, etc.) And comment in then from our own instances.
The creator of sync for reddit is creating a similar app for lemmy, you can sign up for any updates on the sync community here. I plan on downloading that when it comes out.
Edit: I just downloaded connected for lemmy on the Google play store, working great so far!
