Sync for Reddit is dead - eviltoast

For me at least.

Looks like they enforced rate limits an hour before midnight UTC.

    I just used the revanced hack to make it still work by making Reddit think it’s my own developed app. Able to use it right now!

    But I REALLY like Lemmy, so even if I occasionally use Reddit after that dumpster fire, my usage will be split in half by Lemmy.

      I tried the Revanced patch as well, it worked flawlessly, but oh dude, it was still the official reddit app, it was so bad lmao I had been using Boost for about 3 years and honestly there is no point of comparison, 3rd party apps are so much better.

        I think you misunderstood, I used the revanced manager to patch Sync so I could continue to use it, not the official app to just remove ads (which would still be an improvement).

        Here you go. It doesn’t violate the terms of service for Reddit to use it this way, but given the fact that blacking out or John Olivering subreddits was also not against TOS but Reddit took action against it, it’s strongly recommended you make a new Reddit account if you plan to do this.
