I was just browsing and suddenly couldn't comment, couldn't load... everything returns an Error 500: Internal Server something. Is this an issue on Reddit's end, or is Boost finally dead like the rest?

Has Reddit usage gone down in the past few weeks since the API change or has it returned to normal?

Not really Measurable because there is a astronomical bot influx...

Same here. My understanding is that reddit is quietly allowing 3rd party apps for anyone that is or was previously a moderator because of the mod tools that the official app is lacking. As a former mod, apparently I get to keep it, at least until they change their mind.

Probably what's happening, kind of ironic when you think about this whole debacle

I'm a former mod, too. (I created a subreddit years ago as a meme and almost immediately abandoned it.) I'm still able to use Boost for Reddit. Though I'm limiting my usage by a lot.

Yay for ReVanced client ID patches

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago

no patches, I still have the same app which used to be in the play store and it still operates normally

Still working fine here, too, but only on my two mod alts. My non-mod account just gets some kind of "request exceeded" error.

[-] SirMaple_@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I'm getting the same but it looks like the issue is Reddit itself. The number of reports on down detector has skyrocketed.

[-] SasoDuck@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Ok yeah it's back. Seems like Reddit just had a hiccup. Everyone go back to your business :P

[-] GiddyGap@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

What's reddit?

[-] Granixo 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yep, it literally dissappeared from the Play Store.

[-] Crystal_Shards64@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

It died for me a couple weeks ago

[-] shashi154263@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

No, I'm still using it.
