The API changes rolled out recently. I guess op is referring to that.
If it's just that, it means I'm up to date with spez bullshit. I was afraid I missed the nail in the coffin... ><
The only thing you missed is that the devs actually couldn't keep their own deadline for the api change so until now the 3rd party apps still worked.
Actually people can custom patch the apps with their own api key and they still work. This is how I stay up to date with these news.
Atmosphere on Reddit became quite bizarre nowadays. Users are angry against the mods who kept the subs restricted/private instead of the company itself. The stupidity is insane.
Man when I first realised that Relay for Reddit is still working, I legit thought that Reddit's strategy was to just scare people into shutting down third party apps without wasting a dime on actually upgrading their API lol
Meanwhile half the subs have gone into protest mode in all sorts of ways... My favorite is r/madlads who gave all users mod privileges, in true madlads fashion
Edit: can you link to a resource explaining the custom patching thing? Sounds interesting, might try it out
