That's it folks. RIF has stopped working.
Reddit is no longer fun.

Same, Apollo just crashes, I was hoping for some sort of miracle compromise lol

[–] Anomander@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah - as of about thirty minutes ago, Apollo just crashes as soon as it boots.

If you put the phone in airplane mode, you can get the app to load the UI at least. Doesn't do/mean anything but I suspect I'll be doing it out of nostalgia a lot in the coming months.

Mine has started loading normally without that. Obviously no content, but I don't have to turn off connection to have it not crash now.

The developer of Apollo said Reddit cut them off unexpectedly but he was able to make it stop crashing by deleting his token. He can no longer access anything now but at least you can go into the app.

I was hoping he put something special in like a countdown with that last update. Or that you could still open it and see something. App is totally dead.

Update: Apparently Reddit killed all the third party apps themselves early. Probably knowing we would comment only to protest and complain.

A link to Lemmy would have been good.

There is one if you open RIF now :)
Edit: typo

Apollo crashed as soon as I finished reading the eulogy post

[–] 667@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

I didn’t get to :( It wouldn’t load.

[–] zann285@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

That was great timing. I hope you’re not into reading apocalypse or doomsday books, though.

[–] Itsmeshakes@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

BaconReader down as well.

Dang, that kinda sucks. If he was able to still have a going away message it could link to donations to help cover the refunds.
