Rif just died for me, jumped over here to make an account. Welcome fellow refugee.
Yep, it's dead for me too.
RiF was reddit for me. And it pisses me off because if Spez had been reasonable, I would have happily signed up for Reddit Gold to have continued API access.
Other than occasionally checking in on the Ex-Mormon subreddit (to follow up on an institution I dislike even more), I am done with reddit forever.
Same here. It's crazy to me that Reddit decided to alienate the portion of their userbase that was most willing to pay a subscription. Most third party app users are super loyal to their app of choice, and would likely (grudgingly) spend a few extra bucks each month to keep using it. These are users that have, in many cases, been using the same app for over a decade. That is essentially guaranteed long-term revenue.
Instead those users are jumping ship or browsing Reddit behind an ad blocker.
same here. fuck spez
429 errors for me.

Yup finally died for me too, rest in fun sweet prince.
Refugee here. The weather seems nice here.
It stopped loading for me but then I logged off and it would load up again. Logged back on and it worked still but kept giving me errors. Either way it's deleted and gone now.
Guess it's RID now
