I still have the app on my phone. After over a decade of use, I can't bear to uninstall. Seeing it's icon is like seeing a loved one's ashes in my living room.

You can patch your own api key into it with revanced manager

True. If I'm ever interested in going back to that site, I'll try that method. But personally I'm liking Lemmy and the fediverse much more.

reddit content was already going downhill, bunch of repost bots, comments being ripped from other commenters.

when the API changes were announced it started getting worse.

RIF worked for a while after the initial deadline in read only mode and then the content went reeealy downhill.

basically if it wasn't something like news/politics/sports where it's just content being linked to, but actual user generated content then it was just reposts, but like daily.

Wish I would have known that...

You can still do it, just need to download the APK off apkmirror or something

I bought rif premium after they announced the api change, used it for so long. Probably wont delete it for a long time.

I will forever hold on to all my backups of the apk I've made through the years, maybe one day they will be usable again... :(
