In reading the rules and pinned posts, it doesn’t seem to me that my question is out of line with the intention of the community. However, if I am mistaken, please remove the post and accept my sincere apologies.


So, I’ve been getting a lot of 429 errors as of late. Today, I came across this post by one of the Teddit instance admins. The reason for the 429, is the same API restrictions that killed the apps. Teddit is dying.

I still use Reddit for searches, unfortunately, considering much of the world’s IT knowledgebase is on there. Since before the Reddit spez-out, I was using Teddit on PC or Slide/Infinity on mobile. Now that Teddit is being so severely limited by the API debacle that it has instances shutting down, I find myself asking: what Reddit front-ends still work?

Regrettably, I can’t not use Reddit for work, though I don’t participate or even log in, but I REALLY don’t want to give Reddit the traffic.

    The developer of Relay for Reddit is working on optimizing the API usage of the app. I’m not using it (still boycotting Reddit), but I see there are android updates every few days.
