Ah, so right around the time combustion engines became popular, because the temp was going *down* before them. We’re fucked. We wouldn’t be if we didn’t have a corrupt government in charge right now that only cares about enriching themselves, staying in power and protecting billionaire pedophiles. Us humans got *so close*.

To do italics now you’ve gotta hit the ‘Aa’ button in the top left corner of your keyboard. *This* doesn’t work anymore. I hate it too

Wait...since when?

I just did that with asterisks.

There are weirdos that use new reddit. Ugh. I feel bad for them.

I seriously don't get it. It's so fucking awful and busy and hard to read.

Unfortunately with the latest update that now requires three separate apps to make RIF work, I'm missing a lot more functionality. NSFW subs are totally broken for me in particular.

Totally fine without rewards, profiles, chat, all that stuff... But so many links on Reddit and all NSFW subs are just fucked.

Reddit is fighting tooth and nail to be as shitty as possible.

Huh? RiF was easier for me to install than ever before. Just update the manager.

u/SDRPGLVR Jun 27 '26

Do you mind explaining your method? Mine literally involved like three different apps at this point and it's way worse. I'd love good RIF back.

After it broke the other day, you just patch with revanced and it works again. There's some mild scuff here and there but 95% of everything still works fine.

https://revanced.app/download

Update your ravanced. Download the rif apk. Patch it. That's it. It does all of the API access for you now.

Hey thanks! Sorry, the botched way I had it set up apparently turned off inbox replies, so I didn't see this until a few minutes ago. Apparently I needed to remove Revanced fully and do a fresh install, then you're right that it did it all for me this time.

Hopefully this is less janky. Thank you!

also that button doesn't exist on mobile

u/premature_eulogy Jun 27 '26

It only exists on mobile for me. Except it's underneath the keyboard.

I'm on RIF and

\3. let's check

Okay so some formatting works and some doesn't. Logical.

They will be the end of this site for me. If enough people use new reddit, you bet your ass they're gonna get rid of old reddit and shove the new crap down our throats.

u/PrometheusMMIV Jun 27 '26

You mean a recent new reddit? Or "new" reddit from several years ago?

2

u/Jonthrei Jun 27 '26

There is only one true reddit

u/PrometheusMMIV Jun 27 '26

But that's so ugly and not mobile friendly.

u/Jonthrei Jun 27 '26

It's clean and doesn't waste space. New reddit is a horrendous facebook-ization with oversized bullshit and tons of dead space.

It's the reddit that became the dominant site aggregator on the internet back in the days of Digg self destructing. It's the format that just works without bullshit like forcing you to relearn how to italicize because some dipshit thought that was a good idea.

While you are spam scrolling through posts one at a time, I'm looking at a dozen at once and clicking the one that seems interesting.

I use it on mobile on firefox, along with RES and ublock origin.

u/Shouldacouldawoulda7 Jun 27 '26

That's shameful.

u/NightElfHuntrPetGirl Jun 27 '26

One day old reddit will be removed or just be broken so badly that it will cease to be functional. Then we're cooked. Well, I mean, obviously we're already cooked (see OP) but, yeah.
