as a soon-to-be former user of RIF, i will certainly miss the simplistic design and the ease of use of the app. o7
Sbubby
Sbubby - Eef Freef!
Sbubbies are images in which the text of a logo has been cleanly edited to read something different.
We've altered our ruleset a bit from the subreddit, and these may change at short notice as we acclimate to Lemmy.
Rules:
- Be respectful of your fellow users. Be civil towards others, even if you disagree with them. Hate speech of any kind is not tolerated, including, but not limited to: racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, and transphobia.
- All Sbubbies must be edits to the text of logos. A logo is a visually unique set of iconography that represents a specific product, organization, or group, with unique and distinctive fonts and styling. Edits which change the text of things that aren't logos (i.e. street signs, text on product packaging that doesn't edit the logo itself, BSODs, etc.) don't count, and neither do edits to logos which do not change any text.
- All Sbubbies must be cleanly edited. It must resemble the original logo as close as reasonably possible. It doesn't necessarily need to be absolutely pixel-perfect, but it should hold up to a brief visual inspection at the standard zoom level.
- Relevant titles: We will not be enforcing this to the degree that we did on the subreddit, but try to avoid low-effort, non-descriptive titles such as "My first Sbubby," "I made this," "Credit to <...>," "Found in the wild," or "Title."
- Reposts: Try not to repost images that have already been on the Sbubby Lemmy instance. We are allowing reposts from the Sbubby subreddit, but if it's not your own OC, please give credit to the original creator in either the title or a comment if at all possible. This rule will likely be relatively lightly enforced for a while, as we adjust to the new platform.
- Compilations: Any compilations of edits should have some sort of connection or central theme, and preferably your own OC, but other users' content can be included as long as all of it is credited.
- On that note, if you want to port over your content from the subreddit, you can create one big compilation if you'd like, but we recommend spacing out individual posts over time. It should help us maintain a consistent stream of content while we build our userbase. Don't spam a bunch of individual posts over a short period, though - probably no more than 3 posts per day.
- Banned topics: "Oops, all X," Bepis variants, REEEEE, loss.jpg, anything from the banned repost album, unless you were the original creator of a banned repost album image, in which case, contact us first.
thank you RIF for the years of clean viewing on mobile. your work is greatly appreciated. I wish good things for you in the future.
Long live RiF
Bye RIF, i'll uninstall you while doing a salute when you flatline.Thank you for all the years of being Reddit for me. Oh and spez? FUCK YOU
RIF - Reddit is Fun
Reddit kills 3rd party apps.
RIP - Reddit is Poo
In Lemmy we don't poo!
Reddit Is Fin.
Reddit is kill
RIF has been my app of choice for 10 years. I hope that the developers jump on over and create a Lemmy version. Until then I am using Jerboa and it is working well enough. Death to Reddit, Long Live the Fediverse!
I want LIF. Lemmy is fun.
Looks like RIF is going to Tildes
Tildes is really a great place. But it being invite only was probably the worst thing for it if it wanted growth. People couldn't get on Tildes so they came to places like Lemmy or Kbin or one of the others.
Tildes was actively not looking for exponential growth, and the drop in quality that sometimes accompanies it. It is not a Reddit alternative for most folks, who use it for cat pics, star wars memes, and outrage porn. It is for a niche of users who prefer slightly longer form, quality content, and knee jerk reactions and comments aren't as valued over there. I like it, but both Lemmy and Tildes complement each other well rather than being directly against each other. Worst case, one can always browse Tildes without logging in. I don't know why people rush to make accounts immediately, without waiting to get a vibe of the space.
Reddit is dead, Long live the Fediphiles!
I vote we do NOT use that term.
Too close to Pediphiles if you ask me.
Those who like bikes?
I'm pretty sure that the RIF developer is working on an app for Tildes, which is an invite-only non-profit reddit alternative.
Tildes and bluesky are missing the boat by being invite only at this time. They could have had the migration by being better developed alternatives. Instead they're losing everything to lemmy and kbin.
Yeah, I understand they would struggle to scale this suddenly for the influx. Like lemmy and kbin did, but the alternative is that they're now forgotten and missed the boat.
Idk man. I got a tildes invite and I spend a ton more time on there than here, the fediverse seemed to inherit all the bad parts of reddit culture, whereas tildes uses the slow growth and strict moderation to maintain a higher standard of discussion.
Thank you for all those years, RIF. This is bullshit, man.
End of an era. Glad Lemmy is shaping up to be a good replacement. Seems a lot of the homies that used reddit when it was actually reddit migrated here
