Oh, that's really sad... but I can understand you. If the project doesn't satisfy you anymore, it's the right thing to do! I've known and used rtv
for many years. It was a great project! Thank you for putting all that effort in it!
Unfortunately, I've only recently started to contribute to rtv
, so I have some open PRs that did not make it into that project: #684, #688 and #691. I hope that we can establish a successful fork.

Please consider adding the project to the Code Shelter, that way someone vetted might pick it up at some point.

@goggle Thanks! Sorry about those PRs. It was nothing personal or a knock against your code, just bad timing.

Convenient keyboard shortcuts, intuitive distraction free interface, help for commands, ease of use, colors for titles, easiest way to toggle threads, and many more useful features. I thank you for all of this! Wishing you success in your next productive project 👍 You've set an awesome example for clean distraction free command line interfaces. Loads to learn from your work 👍

That’s too bad, but understandable.
Are you going to archive this repo? Makes it clearer that it’s no longer being maintained.
from rtv.
Thank you so much for your work over the years! After the redesign of reddit, I put rtv on almost all of my systems because of the clean interface.

@adam-lee, @Brutus11111, @michael-lazar, whoever else sees this and is interested - I'm maintaining a fork here
from rtv.
@michael-lazar it's been real. Thanks for this great project
from rtv.
Can't blame you, I really liked to have a low distraction client that runs great on RPi. Have fun with your next project!

Great project, such a shame that it has come to an end but it is completely understandable. Do you think in the future you could post 1 or 2 forks you deem worthy on your README?

Absolutely! People are also welcome to use this project's issue tracker to promote alternative projects that they're working on.

Its sad that the project is being shut down. But I am sure the source code will help many new comers learn many things about programming.

Thank you for the work you did with RTV,it was a excellent terminal based reddit tool.
As far as reddit goes,the increasing no of "normal" folks moving to reddit from sites like facebook imo is the reason for its downfall.It used to be a great community/knowledge resouce especially for hobbies and whatnot sadly with "geek/nerd is the new cool" thing destroying everything in its path,reddit too seems to have fallen.

@vor0nwe He answered that question:
Nothing, the GitHub repo will remain as it is today. I am simply going to stop responding to issues and pull requests. I suspect that many people will continue to use the latest release of RTV for some time, until reddit inevitably breaks their API. I may archive the repo sometime in the future.
from rtv.
Thank you so much for your work, this is totally understandable. Who knows how long it'll be before reddit closes off their API and goes the way of twitter and FB.
For anyone else interested, I've been building a federated reddit alternative called Lemmy intended to work in the fediverse, and have an open ticket for someone to fork RTV to get a working command line client for it.
from rtv.
Just a user, but I am very thankful for all your work and effort. It's been an excellent project. I hate the direction popular (social and news) media has taken over the past few years, and I can relate to your frustration.
Hope you find your time better used in more productive, satisfying and gratifying things. Thanks again!
from rtv.
Thank you for your great work. I only recently started using rtv and have been really enjoying it.
I feel like rtv makes the platform more tolerable, in a browser I would find myself endlessly scrolling /all/ and that rarely leads anywhere good. Now I just have a couple multis setup with some subs I enjoy and check in on them occasionally with rtv.
from rtv.
I've enjoyed RTV very much. Thanks for all the work you've done on it.
from rtv.
Thank you for the work you did with RTV! It's a great thing you've made here.
from rtv.
Your concerns for the platform are valid. Thanks for making RTV!
from rtv.
Sad to see you leave the project and it's completely understandable; at some point it becomes a chore that is no longer enjoyable. We are grateful for RTV and wish you the best!
from rtv.
Really sad to hear. I use this app on a daily basis. I do understand your reasons. Reddit isn't getting better, but it does bring me good information on specific subjects. I hope someone else can fork it and continue the great work you have done so far.
from rtv.
I love this application as it makes reddit so much better to use. Thank you so much for making it. I can understand your reasons to no longer support it. I hope the development will continue in another fork, I would really like this application to become platform independent and support not just reddit but every other website like it: hackernews, voot, raddle, saidit, etc.
from rtv.
Darn, I came to check up on the status of the project after having used it last year. Hopefully someone forks and continue on.
from rtv.
<3 thanks for everything.

If you ever want to transfer ownership to someone our little community (tilde.club) would happily take it on.. But unlikely that you'd do that as you stated, I have put it on our github:
https://github.com/tildeclub/ttrv
Thanks for great software over the years :)

It was awesome trying it out.
from rtv.
I just noticed this post moments after commenting on the latest issue (sorry about that!). Occasional Reddit user here but rtv
has been my favourite way to browse it for a couple of years. Sorry to see it go. Best of luck with your future projects and thanks for all the hard work that went into this one!

I've reinstalled RTV now and see this
