Anyone know of a way to just wipe everything from Reddit that’s from my account. I would honestly want everyone to have this so Reddit literally loses a lot of content from people who are done with the site.
If RIF goes down that’ll probably be the end of it for me. Probably time for a healthy break from the doom scrolling anyway. Maybe we’ll come back if it gets undone, but not likely. I’ve only checked Facebook like 10 times in the past 5 years and jeez it is an improvement to my mental health.
Edit: Not that I want to feed my internet addiction, but is there any sort of decent competition to Reddit out there anymore? I mean something specifically for my phone, I don’t really use Reddit on my desktop anymore.
Once rif is gone, I’m just done. Next will be old reddit. They just want to bloat their numbers. Once everything is ready for the ipo old reddit will die off as well.
I’m using RIF too, I don’t think I’ll use Reddit if/when they kill 3p
Their native app is so bad it looks like they went with the absolute cheapest developers they could find which is ridiculous for a platform as big as Reddit.
So sad, if this goes I’m gunna wipe this account completely. I use rif and think it might be a good time to move off Reddit as I can’t stand the official apps interface.
Been a decade. But it’s a shame, thought this was a nice place away from corporate greed, but as we see it eventually consumes. Bummer.
I use RIF and TBH, I am thinking I spend too much time on reddit anyway. Plus, reddit on my phone really breaks down the barrier to inappropriate content. I am not going to bring up porn sites on my phone but adult subreddits are easy to do at times.
Seriously. The blackout is cute and all, but what the mods should do is just… Disappear. Stop monitoring anything until Reddit changes their decision. Reddit is so incredibly reliant on free moderation that if the kids left the entire site would be crippled and the cost of paying for moderation would far exceed the money lost to 3rd party apps. Your move, mods.
It’s been fun. I can’t imagine using Reddit anymore without RIF. The desktop is just bad all around. I’ve had this account for 9 years. The one before that about a year. This platform had been my main SM for so long. I’m genuinely upset. I will miss it.
I fucking hate corporate greed. It just takes everything you quietly enjoy, busts it open, trashes it, then tries to sell it back to you. Even the simple joys of going to a concert sucks now. Reddit feels like one of those last places. It’s been getting bad the last few years but, man the stories we all remember from the old days? Shit was hilarious.
Reddit has it own “Hall of Fame” and we, the users made them possible. The Jolly Rancher incident still makes me gag. Poop knife, the box, that weird dude with two dicks, the potato story, even the disgustingly awful “Fappening”. And, so many others. What a ride.
Be well, folks. I’m leaving at the end of the month too.
Hopefully – in a few years – we’ll realise we were the lucky ones as the bloated corpse of what once was a pioneer of the World Wide Web rots and festers into whatever u/spaz’s ( yes – new name) totalitarian corporate overlords demand.
After 24 years – for me – on the internet it ain’t the dream lots of us hoped it would be. Profit for profit’s sake and farming data appears to be the way forward.
Fuck Reddit and it’s API bullshit.
When Christian’s “Apollo” dies I’m out of here.
Thank you to each and every one of you glorious third-party app-making motherfuckers – you made the world better for me / us.
See you all wherever we end up. 👋
Edit: Fuck my life. Spaz exists – the most boring account ever. I’m obviously referring to that twat u/spez or whatever it’s called
Hey, shout out to Spez for slandering the lead dev of Apollo, then when the dev posted the entirely legal recordings of the call Spez was misrepresenting he then tried to gaslight us all that Reddit was the real victim here.

As Apollo goes, so must I. So long, and thanks for all the fish!

Reddit’s Response: [You’ll be back.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eKFN-aqPJH8)
I’ll start believing that people are actually leaving when I start seeing a mass number of comments and posts made by [deleted].
Until then, call me skeptical.
Edit: Someone in this thread posted a link to this site if you want to nuke your account history before deleting your account.

I’ve only ever used RIF. Just tried the official Reddit app today….omg it’s horrible and unusable.
It’s insane that 3pp apps are being treated this way.
This is bigger than just reddit, this is setting a presidence of the future.
How can we make our voices heard?
I consider myself an Apollo user, not a Reddit user.
I would have never found Reddit if not for Apollo so without it, I too am gone!
I’ve used this app for so long I have no idea how the site even functions…
When RIF goes away, me browsing Reddit on mobile will stop.
And when they inevitably kill off Old Reddit, I’ll stop using it on desktop too.
Jeez, I’ve been here 9 years…

Will I lose RES too? I couldn’t do without it.
Same story here. 10 year account almost exclusively on RIF. I guess it is time for the outside again
I was using RIF as my NSFW app. My life is about to get way more productive
I like RIF 🙁
No Reddit for me soon.
Is there a solid reddit alternative yet
Who is the next Front Page of the Internet?
Once rif is gone, I’m just done. Next will be old reddit. They just want to bloat their numbers. Once everything is ready for the ipo old reddit will die off as well.
I feel like an exodus of any size due to this behavior will cause potential shareholders to scrutinize valuation.
“Ok, so what % of their traffic is bots?”
I’m using RIF too, I don’t think I’ll use Reddit if/when they kill 3p

Their app is painful to use.
RIP RIF

It feels so weird to watch reddit dying. I have a lot of fond memories of this place. Oh well, time to move on I guess.
It was funny in “Ted lasso” the way they redid it!

It was a wild ride. o7
Never forget that corperate greed got us to this.

Fucking Pig boy piss baby. Fuck off, Spez.
If they get rid of old reddit I’m out.
Everybody’s talking about Apollo, RIF, etc.
And here I am, wondering what I’m missing because I’ve been using Bacon Reader for ages.
This might be the best thing for my mental health at the end of the day. Only one way to find out.
Been on RiF for i think over 10 years now. So long and thanks for all the fish.

I’ve been using Reddit is Fun for like 12 fucking years. It’s all I know
RIF is the only way I’m navigating this site.
The official app is fucking terrible.
As if they would pull this shit–going to turn reddit into a ghost town.
If people don’t post here there is no content.
I’m in the same boat. I know I definitely don’t want to use the official app.
Samesies. RIF is life.

Fuck you Huffman, you [incel-ass doomsday prepper](https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/01/30/doomsday-prep-for-the-super-rich). You think you’re going to be in charge? Anyone else that makes it through a disaster is going to see right through your useless ass and have you for dinner.
