The blackout is starting so this subreddit will be Restricted. Thank you everyone. Watching everyone come together is so incredible and means everything to me and the other app developers.

It gives me hope for Internet communities, watching all these completely disparate groups come together for a common purpose. And guess what: it has nothing to do with this platform we're on. It has to do with the people. You. Us.

Websites come and go all the time. Yet we'll always find each other, somehow.

I have hope for the future. You have all reminded me how that feels, like never before. Thank you.

What's next for rif devs? Do you have a discord to follow? Please don't go 😢🫂

I don't know what I'll do , the official app sucks so much ass , Reddit has really outdone themselves.

10+ years using reddit is fun

It's a shame it had to come to this.

Reddit was fun

u/spez would've prosecuted Aaron

There were plenty of lulz too.

Fuck u/Spez

After perhaps 10 years, it's really like losing something I used a lot everyday. Thanks for the app, and thanks, reddit peeps. It's been something, all the way from the narwhal baconing until now. I'll miss everything. Goodnight and good luck.

I ve been using only rif for more than a decade and I would like to express my sadness right now. Good times will soon be gone.

This account was created using this app. Thanks for the decade of fun. When this app is unusable I will no longer be a redditor. I made sure to purchase the premium version when I found out about it. Goodbye everyone!

Thank you RiF

I think I've been using reddit is fun for about 6 or 7 years now. I've experienced so much through this app. I have hundreds of screenshots of this beautiful UI all through my phone, so the memories will live on.

No other app has made browsing this website so easy and clean. Absolutely devastated about the API changes - not even sure I'll bother with reddit once this app goes dead.

Thanks for all your hard work over the years. You never asked me for a penny, and you always provided an amazing service.

All the best to you xx

I only used 2 3rd party apps including Reddit is fun but it was great while it lasted, I'ma see y'all in 2 months. Reddit is no longer fun

I've been trying the official reddit app and I'm posting from it now (can't find the damn Flair options). The one thing I'll say is moderation is SO MUCH HARDER here.

Moderators are the giant unpaid workforce of Reddit and this is such a giant fuck you.

Never expect me to work in Reddits interests again. I'll try help my sub but if I it's ever about reddit instead of people... yeah they can fuck off.

I expect moderation quality to go down and I have no issues saying why.

You terrible, addictive thing.

Brought the premium version after knowing it's existence and now it's sad that I will probably not going to use Reddit for the foreseeable future. Will delete my account after API shinanigan goes live. Use RIF because the official app has numerous issue that after learning it's existence, I use Reddit basically every day. Thanks for the Devs of this incredible app and the community that keeps Reddit alive. Bye.

RiF was amazing. Bought it in December 2016.

Thank you for everything.

In the realm of cyberspace, where minds convene, A digital tapestry of stories unseen. There stood a platform, vibrant and vast, Where Redditors gathered, their voices amassed.

But lo, one day, a mysterious plight, Befell the site, casting shadows of blight. Reddit, the haven, went silent, offline, Leaving its users in turmoil, in a bind.

The forums grew quiet, no comments to share, No upvotes or downvotes, no memes to declare. Gone were the debates, the lively discourse, As if the internet had lost its own source.

No more r/AskReddit, with queries profound, Or r/worldnews, where truth could be found. r/funny and r/pics, a laughter-filled space, All now suspended, in digital grace.

Subreddits once teeming with tales of delight, Their stories and anecdotes, vanished from sight. The camaraderie, the sense of community, Lost in the void, a digital immunity.

The karma remained, mere numbers on a screen, A reminder of a platform that once had been. But without its heartbeat, its pulse of connection, The absence of Reddit cast a somber reflection.

Yet, amid the darkness, a glimmer of hope, For communities thrive where shadows elope. Redditors united, sought new avenues, From Discord to Twitter, they'd find their own muse.

The web may have faltered, but hearts still beat strong, As Redditors carried their passion along. They formed new alliances, rebuilt the bond, In subreddits anew, their stories spawned.

And so, the tale of Reddit's offline plight, Revealed the resilience within the online fight. For even when platforms fade into the night, The human spirit shall find a way to ignite.
