Some users wonder if the dev will be charged for having it still up, others argue Reddit can't charge him without having signed a contract. Everyone is confused as to why the API change hasn't made it inoperable.

Why is Boost still working?

When the API shut off early, Apollo dev u/iamthatis (@fhristianselig@mastodon.social) revoked his token so I cannot see any of this

Yeah, Reddit singled his app out to be cut off first. So petty.

All the other 3rd party apps shut down at the same time yesterday

Yep, it was pathetic move from Reddit's side.
