RIP RIF
That's it folks. RIF has stopped working.
Reddit is no longer fun.
numbscroll, 
@Teppic Apollo too :/
RyanHeffronPhoto, Poor Hugo gone to his final resting place.. 😢
I'll probably have to get the full pixel pals on my kids tablet to help support Christian.
BBKuma, 
Yup has stopped working for me as well. Rip RIF.
Devi, End of an era. Start of a new one though.
pizza_rolls, 
Pretty wild how fast this all happened. Good riddance to reddit and the rude people that inhabit it
ScumbagSpruce, 
Apollo died at exactly 7:00pm eastern for me.
Tashlan, 
Fuck spez.
NotMyOldRedditName, Relay still working for the time being
snooggums, 
Isn't relay making a deal with the devil?
gk99, (edited ) Boost is still up at the moment but Boost for Lemmy is already up for pre-registration, so I don't think it's a hard cutoff or anything.
tempestuousknave, DBrady thinks they can keep the app open for ~$3/month.
NotMyOldRedditName, Best of luck to him, but I ain't giving him that money to just give to reddit, 100000x if NSFW content isn't available.
Usernameblankface, RIP
I thought I'd check it one more time this evening, but no. Nothing there.
FaceDeer, 
Same, I thought "hey, I should get a screenshot or something to remember it by."
Peacemeal12, 
Rest in peace truly a legendary app.
elk_1337, Same, Apollo just crashes, I was hoping for some sort of miracle compromise lol
Wisely, (edited ) I was hoping he put something special in like a countdown with that last update. Or that you could still open it and see something. App is totally dead.
Update: Apparently Reddit killed all the third party apps themselves early. Probably knowing we would comment only to protest and complain.
sudo, 
A link to Lemmy would have been good.
Teppic, (edited ) 
There is one if you open RIF now :)
Edit: typo
endlessvoid, (edited ) Apollo crashed as soon as I finished reading the eulogy post
zann285, That was great timing. I hope you’re not into reading apocalypse or doomsday books, though.
667, 
I didn’t get to :( It wouldn’t load.
Anomander, 
Yeah - as of about thirty minutes ago, Apollo just crashes as soon as it boots.
ColonelSanders, If you put the phone in airplane mode, you can get the app to load the UI at least. Doesn't do/mean anything but I suspect I'll be doing it out of nostalgia a lot in the coming months.
Anomander, Mine has started loading normally without that. Obviously no content, but I don't have to turn off connection to have it not crash now.
Wisely, The developer of Apollo said Reddit cut them off unexpectedly but he was able to make it stop crashing by deleting his token. He can no longer access anything now but at least you can go into the app.
jiji, 
Dang, that kinda sucks. If he was able to still have a going away message it could link to donations to help cover the refunds.
Wisely, Reddit killed the third party apps early.
Itsmeshakes, 
BaconReader down as well.
corvax, Sync also shut down at the same time. Sent out a notification to everyone.
onyx, RIP :/
DontMakeMoreBabies, Fuck Reddit, long live Kbin/Lemmy/Fediverse.
bailey, I actually feel really sad for an app. Got the 429 error and my heart sunk. Rest in peace friend.
skallywaggz, Man fuck spez and all the enablers. Seriously incompetent leadership and anyone thinking of touching that IPO might as well light their money on fire.
Tiktok alone shows the masses can and will switch to something completely different on a moments notice.
