    I told reddit I wouldn’t be back and I meant it. RIF was perfect and they didn’t deserve the defeat and lies they received for just trying to share reddit to more people in a better manner. Fuck /u/spez

      Me too, i even said it in one of my last comments and a couple months later when i logged back in to wipe over my account i saw i had a reply; someone responded saying something like “yeah sure thing, youll be back in 2 days drama queen”.
      Well, turns out i meant what i said. Bye Felicia

    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.

    Cheers y’all.

    Hopped over to Lemmy around that time and learned about the Fediverse. And now I’m checking out PieFed.

    What a ride it’s been.

    3 months short for me but that’s because it took me that long to figure out how Lemmy worked.

    Piling on another comment to say that lurking here feels much nicer than on reddit. The comments are actually worth reading a lot of the time. RiF going down was a dark day, but Jerboa and Lemmy make everything light.

      Because reddit is mostly bots and shills now. Lemmy will be up and coming soon and then it’ll be even more astroturfed due to how easy it easy to do that on this platform.

    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.

    Joey was the superior app. Shame it didn’t get as widespread as the others.
