Revanced & being a mod doesn’t seem to matter anymore.
I can still view the front page but no comments, profile, individual subreddits, etcetera now.
This is the same for me on both Sync and Boost.
Surely, I can’t be the only one.
Combined with their recent shenanigans with old.reddit.com I’m finally feeling more ready to just let it go finally because there is no freaking way I’m going to use new or their crummy ad_riddled app.
You can use alternative front ends like Stealth on Android, or just use a redirect extension to a libreddit instance when finding answers for things. I personally still find good answers on reddit when researching something I know little about, so use these as it cuts out a lot of the noise from the official page/app.
I expect the quality of the content to eventually decline there, but in the meanwhile this helps at least for browsing.
The list of instances you shared was updated recently, but I tried the one url in it (the rest are onion links or i2p, and are older versions of libreddit to boot) and the page didn’t even load.
Libreddit has been discontinued for nearly a year due to not working thanks to Reddit’s API changes, though about a month ago they updated their repo to direct people to RedLib, which allegedly does work. That said, I tried the official instance and got an error. However, it’s being actively developed and looks easy to self-host. I don’t know if there’s a list of unofficial public instances.
Found this section within the GitHub page you’re linking to.
Most instances had an outage yesterday I noticed. I’ll grant it’s not perfect, and thanks for clarifying, I had been using, but forgot to mention, redlib as a redirect.
Self hosting is obviously the best option if you can, I just use the instances personally and 99% of the time those links have just worked for me, but I can’t speak on other people’s experience with them.
I’m just glad there’s an alternative front end at all and there are those putting their instances out there.
