Screenshot so you don't have to give reddit your traffic, I took one for the team.
Basically they are too incompetent to make their own deadline.
It has finally stopped working for me. No more reddit, fuck u/spez
Sometimes it hangs for a minute, I'm guessing that's part of the "changes within 24 hr" whereas total shutdown is coming "in the coming weeks."
But Lemmy's nicer anyway, I just use boost to browse r/boostforreddit, they've had great stuff after the 1st
Still works for me
I'm not going back to reddit, even if it's working and if it continues to work in future.
Moved to Lemmy for good and not looking back whether boost there works or not. Although it was boost that made reddit fun for me. Can't wait for boost for Lemmy!
I noticed as well, but I've uninstalled and was significantly more productive this morning at work lol. I'm going to be using Lemmy going forward and see how it goes
The contrast between Boost and the official app is so stark.
Does anyone know if using Boost for Reddit right now will hurt Ruben? I will uninstall it immediately if that's the case.
Reddit has postponed dropping the old API from 1st of July to 5th of July, so things are expected to work until sometime tomorrow. As Boost still connects via the old API, there are no costs involved for the developer.
I really, really, doubt that. This is also my first comment on Lemmy. I'm still getting the hang of it.
Welcome to lemmy then!
Hey @rmayayo@lemmy.world, is this going to be problematic for you?
I wouldn't expect a reply.
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.
Same when I tried earlier. I'm all in on Lemmy now, and I don't want the dev to potentially get charged with API fees, so I just uninstalled anyways.
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
NSFW Content is not being shown anymore on the Boost app. Rest of the app is working still.
If you're mod of any sub, NSFW content is still being shown in all subs.
They killed it today. If you manually browse to a nsfw sub it tells you to use the official app or the website.
Same results with relay.
Bye bye greedy fuckers.
Probably because it's weekend and devs aren't working right now. So the changes will probably happen on Monday.
YouTube videos in the internal video player started failing for me, maybe he's starting to expire the tokens for the integrations
