Christian your app will be sorely missed. Deleting my account tonight and going all in on lemmy. It’s been a great run!

I'm not ashamed to admit that this is a significant moment in my life. It's the end of an era. It has had significant impacts on my habits.

Yep. For years I’d scroll Reddit during my off-time. Sitting on the bus or in the train, when taking a short break from work.

There was always something interesting to read, and now it’s ruined.

I hope Lemmy picks up but it takes years to build up such a large userbase.

Similar thing happened to Reddit sync, I get error 429 (too many requests). It's time to move over permanently to lemmy!

Same here /: unfortunately I didn’t get to download the wallpapers before it died which is kinda a bummer, but as a 12+ year Reddit user I’m still glad to have supported Christian one last time.

At least for me I can still open the app and go to settings where the option for the wallpapers is

Looks like Christian manually revoked his token so the app opens now

Wow, I saw this moment coming but couldn’t comprehend, that it’s really going to be over. And now the app ist just gone.

Thank you Christian!

Sounds like some tokens broke when Reddit pulled the plug. Still no access to content, but Christian has fixed the app itself in case anyone still wants to tip, refuse a refund, get the wallpapers, or download their data.

I haven’t updated but it still crashes. Doesn’t crash if you open it with airplane mode on though. Still even if you get it open it’s dead. ;(

I've been going into rif occasionally throughout the day expecting it to happen but also hoping it wouldn't. It's weird to care so much, but I do. I've had reddit for so many years, always there, so cuddly and comforting, when I just want to doom scroll through randomness.

I'm excited to try something new but also really nervous to break my reddit habit. Hi friends. I can't wait to see how we grow and develop this new chapter together!

Consider not getting a pro-rated refund from Christian if you see fit. If you got value out of the app, it's one last hurrah for Christian.
