Thank you everyone for your support since 2009.

Thank you to /u/anon_smithsonian in particular for taking care of everyone on /r/redditisfun.

RIF, you're quirky and rough around the edges, but you've always gotten the job done. You know how to get out of the way and show people the articles, discussions, pictures, and videos they came for.

You have the silliest name, but we love you all the more for it. RIF will always be fun in our hearts.

RIF has been so much of my life.

I'm honored that so many of you have felt the same way.

Thank you for sharing this journey with me. It's been fun.

Thanks so much. Have fun over at Tildes. Don't have an invite for there yet

I got one 2 weeks ago and checked it out, it's not for me tbh. The way communities work over there is that you can't just create a communtiy (basically a subreddit), it has to be created by admins when a topic sort of organically grows out of an existing community. So it's a cool idea i guess but it won't have the same vibe of anyone can create anything that reddit had.
