    No current plans for LIF, but I suppose it wouldn't hurt for me to squat on this community... Thanks for holding it.

    Don't get your hopes up though! Seriously.

    I am looking forward to !syncforlemmy@lemmy.world though, made by the Sync for Reddit dev. We were rivals as Reddit app devs, but lately I found he's pretty chill and I'll be following his Lemmy app.

    Why make an app for Tildes instead of Lemmy?

    I'd already been working on a Tildes app for a while before knowing Reddit was going to kill third-party apps. I didn't have time to work on Lemmy and Tildes and RIF.

    Since Tildes is different enough, it made sense at the time to have both a Tildes and RIF app which didn't have too much overlap; their communities are quite different. Lemmy and RIF are more similar to each other.

    Who knows; after I release my Tildes app, I could work on other apps too.

    Text of the webpage: ## RIF going away song for June 2023: Jay Park - Yesterday [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATuP6CE0vxM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATuP6CE0vxM) ----- ## A message Thank you everyone for your support since 2009. Thank you to /u/anon_smithsonian in particular for taking care of everyone on /r/redditisfun. RIF, you're quirky and rough around the edges, but you've always gotten the job done. You know how to get out of the way and show people the articles, discussions, pictures, and videos they came for. You have the silliest name, but we love you all the more for it. RIF will always be fun in our hearts. RIF has been so much of my life. I'm honored that so many of you have felt the same way. Thank you for sharing this journey with me. It's been fun.

    This is correct. I'm also excitedly watching Sync for Lemmy as Lemmy and Kbin are pretty neat so far and will only get better. I have been finding myself using all of the above.

    Although @ljdawson and I have been vicious blood rivals in the past in the Reddit third-party Android apps sphere, we've been interacting more lately and see eye-to-eye on a lot of things. Great person and great developer.
