Does the RiF app still work for anyone else so long as you're not logged in? - eviltoast

Hard to break old habits, I kept accidently opening the RiF app. And so long as I’m not logged in I can browse reddit. Is this the case for anyone else? And do we know why?

    It isn’t just you, and as for why it’s because reddit is staffed by morons. There’s no point in sugar coating that.

    RIF won’t be back like Vanced, best to do what I did and put your Lemmy app on that square of your home screen.

      My good sir; a SQUARE? I had given Reddit is Fun the entire 4x1 widget that auto-updated every half hour, in dark mode theme no less. That was one of the things I loved most about RiF - the clean, bare-bones and functional widget on my home screen.

      But yes, since reading this thread, I put it back on my home screen and now I just read reddit in RiF while logged out. We’ll see how long that lasts…
