Welp this is my first post and looks like my exit from Reddit post. The only app I used for Reddit has officially died. Time to go all in on Lemmy and hope that the developer makes JoeyForLemmy. I like Joey, it was great.

uhm.. but my Joey still works? lol
i have killed the "please update" message and still run a older version of Joey, but still. if reddit kills off the api key you would suspect that the app isn't loading anymore content. but it does. weird.
edit: okay, seems if you are a moderator in any subreddit on reddit the app still works. that's why. reddit amazes me everyday more.. first they kill off thirdparty apps, but then still allow to use them if you are a moderator..they kill off NSFW for thirdparty apps, but if you are a moderator its still working.. they can't decide what they want.
They want a lot of moderators and a lot of new subreddits with no users apparently...
a lot of users already created subreddits with their own username after the nsfw block in the API. so yes, lots of empty and pointless subs only created to bypass the block.
They want mods to still be there because it’s free labor that they actually need for the site to not be complete dogshit. For all other users, they want them to use their Official(tm) CCP-Certified(c) Reddit Application(r) so they can shovel shit down their throats.
