Reddit changed their minds, do a half step back - RIF can access Reddit but doesn't accept login (self.redditwasfun)

Seems that someone at Reddit decided to grant read access to RIF, this morning I opened the app just for kicks and it wouldn't load anything. Well I tried again after lunch (Europe CET time) and it could access the front page but I was logged out. Trying to login shows a different logon page and even with valid credentials gives out a 'Bad request' response.

That means they are not just feeling the heat, they are probably burning really bad.

Not a good sign if we literally can't tell if this is a galaxy brain strategy or a technical failure.
