Why are 3rd party apps still working?
Why are 3rd party apps still working?
Joey for Reddit was my reddit client of choice for several years now. There never was any announcement from the dev regarding the future of Joey.
So there were speculations if he made a deal with reddit and would continue with a subscription tier.
Boost however officially announced they would shut down with the API changes coming.
I just checked and both apps are still going strong.
Shouldn't they have stopped working on June 30th?
Amy idea what's going on?

Infinity on Android still works for me, though I don't know for how long as I got a message about a week ago when opening the app saying it would switch to a paid subscription July 1st so I have no idea what is going on there.
I think Infinity secured some kind of exception to keep it running until the new subscription version is ready (likely because the app has always been free and not subscription-based). There was some discussion on the Reddit Infinity community but I haven't been on there in a while.
There is some suspicion that other apps like Narwhal are paying out of pocket to keep things going at the moment...
