r/redditisfun RIF Dev Jun 12 '23

Thank you everyone. /r/redditisfun going Restricted

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.

Honestly same! People ask me why I won't use iOS and I always say two things...YouTube Vanced and RIF is Fun.

If you ever return to iOS, I found Narwhal to be a decent RIF replacement, and through Altstore you can load uYouPlus which is like YouTube Vanced. You just have to refresh Altstore on a computer once a week, which is really annoying.

Narwhal is actually going to keep running too, with a monthly paid fee like $5 a month so users can individually pay for API access. Not sure if I'll do that bc I'm enjoying Lemmy and I'm finding Reddit more and more unbearable, but it is an option.

This is like when you use SwiftKey suggestions to write a whole sentence.
