It's using a different API than the OAUThed one, since everyone was logged out when the API shut down.
Not as much as an api as an xml dump.
Kind of dumb to let that available (since the claimed problem was massive scraping for AI datasets) while blocking posting and upvotes.
It will likely be shutdown too.
