Anyone know why or how?
Does anyone know if using Boost for Reddit right now will hurt Ruben? I will uninstall it immediately if that’s the case.
I really, really, doubt that. This is also my first comment on Lemmy. I’m still getting the hang of it.
Came here to post this. I’m really just reading stuff on lemmy now as the communities build, but check boost every now and then. Still kicking.
Looking forward to boost for lemmy!
Edit - NSFW subs no longer work and initial site load is slow.
Surprisingly, Relay still opened fine and I was able to browse a bit.
I don’t have any illusions about Reddit, I’m all in on Lemmy. But it is weird that it’s past the deadline and apps are still functioning.
I am not surprised. Reddit is really struggling these days, it will take them some days or weeks to update the API for these new changes.
If the app wasn’t update to stop working it still uses the developer API token (client_id), Infinity is also working.
Just don’t update the app a continue using while it works.
Very weird how Boost’s API credentials are still working, but other apps were shut down unexpectedly on the hour. The Apollo dev still had to delete his API key for the app to stop crashing, so the credentials were still there.
Either Reddit was deliberately very selective with which apps had to go, or spez had it done manually and didn’t make a full list of apps lol
If the dev don’t revoke the token user can continue to use their apps.

Reddit didn’t “kill the apps”, only charge the API, if devs continue to use their API the bill will be send to them
Again, Christian did not revoke the Apollo token until after the app wasn’t able to authenticate. I’m pretty sure developers have to actually apply for higher rate limits using the new Developer Platform in order to be able to get charged for them.
