Does the RiF app still work for anyone else so long as you're not logged in? (lemmy.world)

Hard to break old habits, I kept accidently opening the RiF app. And so long as I'm not logged in I can browse reddit. Is this the case for anyone else? And do we know why?

Reddit incompetence I think. They'll probably block access soon I'm just surprised it's still working too.

I just can not understand how this would even work technically. Without the help of the original RIF programmer that is.

That being said, if Reddit is somehow doing this, it is only for short term so that they do not bleed so many people rapidly. Once all established, they will take it down app by app and eventually Old Reddit on PC continuing with their shitification.

But you can't even log in with RiF so it still doesn't make sense. I guess Reddit are just completely incompetent.
