Seems that someone at Reddit decided to grant read access to RIF, this morning I opened the app just for kicks and it wouldn't load anything. Well I tried again after lunch (Europe CET time) and it could access the front page but I was logged out. Trying to login shows a different logon page and even with valid credentials gives...
I'm leaning more toward "incompetence" as the explanation for this. What good does it do Reddit to leave RIF intact, but simply disallow logging in?
Reddit's value depends on content creation and interactions driving ad views. Read-only RIF users create no content or interactions with the site. And for many like me who purchased the premium ad-free version, we see no ads.
Admittedly, I'm not sure if the RIF ads in the free version are Reddit's own ads or not, but without the content creation, and the interactions driving more engagement, RIF does little but drag on the site.
Mine is going strong after 5 years, with one button repair I did myself. Loved it so much I bought my husband one for use in the basement so he doesn't have to schlep upstairs to mine every time he wants to fill a bag.
Same here. My domain name and email address will turn 30 next March. I've been doing this since the days when Usenet posts were transmitted across sites using UUCP.
We will always find the next place. Reddit has peaked and is destroying itself and it's time to move on.

Trump All But Confesses to Mishandling Classified Docs on Fox News The former president, facing charges of mishandling classified information, nearly confessed to the crime — while blaming his “golf shirts”
I'm a RIF person myself but I have so much respect for Apollo and Christian's work, even as I've never had the opportunity to use it, just from how he's handled and documented this situation. I'm sad both Apollo and RIF are being taken from us and I hope Christian and Andrew find amazing success in whatever they decide to work on next.
2 out of 3 of those are immediately disqualifying for me. The third is unfortunate but I'll take old over criminal fascists every day and twice on Sunday.
They permanently banned my 9yo account with 2 million karma for using the "boxes of Liberty" metaphor in a highly up voted comment about Republicans taking away access to voting. They said it was a threat of violence. 🙄 Meanwhile fascists make literal death threats in conservative subs with no consequences.
The site has systematically been banning high volume contributors who aren't right wing enough for at least the last 3 months. They, like Twitter, are trying to suppress the voices of people who are against fascism. It is deliberate and planned.
I've been a daily smoker for the last 4 years, I had to take some time off for a job and it's shocked me how my dreams have come back. I'm not planning on quitting but I'm probably going to try to stop daily usage. I'm curious how others feel about where they are with their weed usage and how it impacts them. I genuinely forgot...
I tend to prefer fuel-based strains like Sour Diesel, Chemdawg and Rocket Fuel or Jet Fuel. Whether it's a sativa or indica dominant strain seems to matter less. If it's got that funky fuel smell, it will usually treat me right.
11 year old account deleted today. Final straw.

This was the last post I saw before closing RIF last night, and signing off Reddit for good. (lemmy.world)
RIF still works today for some weird reason, but I’m not logging in. I wanted this adorable scrungy cat to be my last memory of Reddit.
