Patched Sync for Reddit still works, but using Relay for Reddit now tells me to use the official app to browse mature content.

A couple of notes: being a mod does work around this block. It also appears that reddit is blacklisting NSFW from an explicitly defined list of client ids, meaning Revanced-patched apps are not affected at all and you don’t have to be a mod.

    3p apps are dead to reddit. Why do you guys keep trying? u/spez isn’t going to change his mind all of a sudden

    e: Time to go back to my android fulltime. Putting on charger and putting in sim card 😁

      I left Reddit just ahead of the blackout, and I’ve only been returning for one small private sub that can’t effectively be moved. I figure, since it’s private, Reddit doesn’t get much credit for my activity there.

      I’ve used Relay exclusively for many years, so I’ve been happy that it’s continued to work. It will be annoying if/when I have to use the browser to go to that sub.

    Nsfw is also dead on mobile web. And just a reminder that nsfw isn’t just porn, it’s also cannabis and vape content, and likely other content that touched “sensitive” subjects.

    I uninstalled Relay yesterday. It was a good decade but time to move on.
    I get that there are workarounds to patch apps and bypass NSFW which I could very easily avail myself of, but the more I consider it the more this whole drama has put me off Reddit as a platform, and really any centralised platforms. I could still use them but I just don’t want to… staying as an active user just feels like tacit endorsement of communities being decimated by a company that doesn’t even pay the folks that actually keep them going.

        I read somewhere that rif came back using webscraping instead of the API. In return you can’t (currently) comment.

        Not 100% sure how true that is though.

        The app works if you just sign out and browse reddit. Even NSFW posts are viewable still.
