I'd been using the Joey app to keep tabs on a few subreddits I'm fond of. It finally stopped working today.

Hey just a heads up! Boost for reddit started working again today

[–] [email protected] 0 points 5 months ago

Boost died today. I'm done with Reddit forever.

When the API fiasco went down, I backed away from all the communities I created over a decade ago and just walked away from modding.

Now I go to not participating.

I hate Reddit, and I have fun memories at the same time. I was like the 50th sign up, I even emailed spez his own source code because he had his web server badly configured to report verbose errors.

Oh well.

My modded RIF is still working, but I'm using a personal API key for it. Were these other apps that stopped working today also modded with personal keys?

No, Joey hasn't been updated since Reddit said they were pulling the plug last year. It just... kept working.

This is the second or third post I've seen about 3rd party apps that have stopped working on Reddit today.

They must have made a change.

It's like they want you to come over to Lemmy full time! And after so many years there, it seems only right to do as they're asking. Welcome! 🙌
