just got a 429 message from RiF. there it goes
Rate limit errors from Sync! RIP Reddit
RIP rif
Yep. It's real now :/
Welp, it had to happen sometime. Sucks but I was a RiF user too until the 12th, at least we have jerboa/wefwef for Lemmy.
I got a 429 error from Sync. I literally had to look up what that error was. I'll still go to Reddit some on desktop, I image, but I won't be accessing it from mobile unless something radically changes.
A sad day for reddit... Lemmy, here we come!
Hopefully this one lasts a few decades before I start wishing there was a decent alternative. Though it does sound like there will be more players in this area going forward. Guess it's a wait and see which ones last.
Well, I'd expect so. Since it's open source and federated a corporate dick move as seen with reddit won't be easily possible here. If an admin goes rogue you can simply switch to a different instance and still enjoy the same communities, and if the developers/maintainers decided to ignore the community's wishes and go in some absurd direction with the project we'd simply see a lemmy fork maintained by a different team appear.
Yeah, this time around does feel more promising than the last one, though admittedly I only have a basic idea of how this one works. I'm curious how things like user security and comment coherency work that don't leave doors open for abuse by a rogue admin or result in split communities. Or user abuse where this ends up in the target sights of entities like the RIAA or FBI.
Especially considering Reddit's best path to a profitable IPO would be to get these alternatives shut down and stall their momentum in the hopes of attracting back some users after anger fades.
And there's also the question of whether Elon ruining Twitter and spez ruining Reddit at around the same time are coincidence, spez taking advantage of Elon's mistakes to do an unpopular move himself, or part of a pattern of shutting down the large audience social media sites.
So if there are flaws to exploit, it wouldn't surprise me to see them exploited.
I'm feeling cautiously optimistic overall though.
Elon was an inspiration for spez IIRC. Here's hoping both their platforms rot.
Boost still seems to be loading for me (AU). My main Lemmy instance appears to not be loading at the moment though :(
Give it 5 minutes. Many Lemmy instances are using a lot of resources. I couldn't get Lemmy.world to load a few minutes ago.
It really was a fantastic app. RIP sweet prince.
was on til the last moments, RIP RiF, my most used app by far....
