It’s fun to see them getting it from all angles, but the users really should just get out of there since it’s obvious nothing is going to significantly change. The loudest and most effective protest of all is to just leave- but people don’t like the effort it takes to change something in your routine like which site you doomscroll through.

The first couple days after I deleted RiF, I would just pick up my phone and stare at it blankly for a few seconds.

I had to retrain my brain to open Connect instead of searching for RiF.

I'm bouncing around between apps. Connect was good and using Thunder right now. Joey for Reddit was my go to; I just put the Lemmy apps where it was.

I'm really enjoying "Liftoff". It's super clean.

Thanks for the suggestion, I have been using wefwef, now renamed voyager, and while I am appreciating it I cannot move past that it’s a web app.
