It appears API rate limiting has effectively killed these alternatives. You essentially get nothing but “Too many requests” 429 errors.

Lemmy sadly does not have the active niche news and discussions I want. But now nothing can be read without going to Reddit. I hate Spez

How come Focus for Reddit is still working? Even NSFW is unblocked there

The app is still using the dev API token, the dev didn't revoke the token and created a new one for the API changes.
If it's abandoned the app will continue to work.
