Reddit changed their minds, do a half step back - RIF can access Reddit but doesn't accept login (lemmy.world)

Seems that someone at Reddit decided to grant read access to RIF, this morning I opened the app just for kicks and it wouldn't load anything. Well I tried again after lunch (Europe CET time) and it could access the front page but I was logged out. Trying to login shows a different logon page and even with valid credentials gives out a 'Bad request' response.

That means they are not just feeling the heat, they are probably burning really bad.

Oh I have no intention of going back, though I am actively avoiding engaging with Reddit at the minute. I mostly meant in terms of accepting a reddit thread link in a Google search sort of thing. I don't intend to be an active participant again.

Oh I see. Yeah unfortunately there's a lot of information that can only be found on Reddit. There are some questions I searched for and the only results with good answers were on Reddit. I think minimizing engagement is good enough
