    For those of you who are interested and still want to go on Reddit for any reason, Redlib still works… kind of. My personal instance running Nachtalb’s fork still works, but not sure for how long

    There are still a small shortlist of public instances that are up, and ppl are pushing fixes that circumvent whatever shenanigans Reddit is pulling. Although, some folks are suspecting that Reddit SWEs are monitoring the redlib project with close attention & trying to shut down any workarounds the redlib team finds

      yeah same here

      I deleted my reddit account back in 2023 after the API changes. I run my own redlib instance to read stuff about some niche interests, but once that stops working i’ll stop that too. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      On mobile you can still use RedReader to browse reddit anonymously.

      I had an old reddit account from before they required an email address. After I commented about the Chinese genocide of the Uyghurs, a hacker used failed login attempts to flag my account, which triggered reddit to demand an email address. I took that as my cue to leave the site altogether.

        Haha, that just means you did something that stung them. Look at Mbappe now, he’s being completely sidelined and having his contract terminated.
