Posting here since the boost sub on Reddit is completely locked.

As of a few hours ago the Boost for reddit app is giving me 403 errors and won’t load anything at all. I’ve been continuing to use Boost for Reddit since the app-ocolypse since im a mod. But it seems like it might actually be dead now?

Can anyone else confirm?

    Thank you! Though may this “fiasco” serve as a reminder that we are all better off building Lemmy into something better rather than keep engaging with reddit.

      It’s a wonderful aspiration, but I literally was the 3rd sign up on Reddit… No word of a lie, I actually emailed spez his own source code because he had his server misconfigured to report verbose errors.

      Reddit has been a piece of shit from day one, it’s always been a piece of shit, it will always be a piece of shit, people love pieces of shit.

      And a real problem underlying is that people are shit.

      So you cannot build any type of community until we learn as a tech community how to organize humans by intellectual capacity, instead of by interests.
