        I find Liftoff to be much, much better atm

        Almost already recommendable to people upset about third party reddit apps; just needs to remove the need to know how instances work when registering.

          Liftoff is close but still a little buggy (to be expected). I appreciate the compact mode and option to take the curve off the corners.

          But it’s still not quite what I’m looking for from a RIF replacement. It’s still too stylized and using “modern” design aesthetic with all it’s wasted screen space and padding.

          I like RIF for it’s classic design. Simple, straightforward, compact.

            I’m 100% with you, RiF was almost perfectly lean and efficient in how it presented things and nothing else is quite there. I like maximal info density and minimal UI, RiF really had the balance dialed in.

            I said something similar in the Matrix channel for it and one of the devs said he’s already working on making the “compact” design more compact.

        I mean, its still super early in its development. Im sure RiF had some bugs to work through when it was launching as well.

        Im willing to use it, let it crash, and send in crash reports to help the dev make it better in the meantime (at least I hope thats what I am doing).
