Happy ruleversary
Honestly Lemmy has been way better for me for my phone habits. Just enough content but not too much

I stopped using RIF when the dumbass who developed it started whining about open source and monetary remuneration. The app became popular in large part because it was open source.
It’s just like the nutsack who founded GitHub. A literal GPLv2 program and the guy got super rich and famous, then extolled the virtues of using lax permissive licenses. Absolute tool.
Sync was always better
3 months short for me but that's because it took me that long to figure out how Lemmy worked.
I wasn't on reddit, but I did hear a lot of buzz about lemmy around that time, so I decided to check it out. It's been one of the better places I've enjoyed for discussion.
Me!! Cheers 🍸
I joined when Reddit started milking their users
What's RIF? I joined when BaconReader stopped working
RIF was arguably the best Reddit mobile app.
RIF = reddit is fun
Its was when the third party apps went down

Time flies doesn't it?
Wow, it's been 2 years already? Time flies! Cheers to the leavers
Wow 2 years already?! Let's fucking go Lemmy!
Oh, it went down finally? I wonder if whatever Eternity is based on died
Cheers for infinity, may it rest in peace.
I'm currently using Eternity for lemmy (fork)
Relay for me
Apollo was the last straw for me.
Happy anniversary from Mbin!
I replaced RIF with Stealth. It's actually a really excellent read-only client that you can subscribe to subs and view content without contributing anything to Reddit.

I patched my Sync and RIF so they still work fine. But I'm here anyway!
I never looked back
Ah-ho!
Two year anniversary just a few days ago. Also left when RiF stopped working. Really nice to see Lemmy activity continually going up with each passing day, but the quality hasn’t gone down. Very much enjoying it!
