We need a scraper rather than an API caller.

Something similar to @BotIt I suppose?

Reddit front-ends access Reddit data in a way that is now bound by much stricter rate-limiting than ever before.
Popular instances may be usable for a short time until their limit is reached, then they will 429 like everyone else.
If you, personally, host a Reddit front-end instance, you are still affected, you are just less likely to reach the limit as quickly as public instances.

Here's what the Libreddit project intends to do about it: https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/issues/836
If similar projects plan to continue, they will likely follow a similar approach.

Both teddit and libreddit have been down more than up the last couple of days for me. However, I discovered an android app that is still working. Geddit. I don't claim to understand why the former two don't but the latter still does.

LibReddit seems to be working still. At least my instance is.

That's kinda not how this is gonna work. If an instance gets shared, it's going to stop working as the new viewers overload that instance's individual rate limit. You'll have to host your own instance and hope that your personal use isn't enough to exceed the limit.
