It lasted nearly 2 weeks longer than I had anticipated. First it slowed and now it's finally dead. "Error 429 - Too many requests" is the message I'm greeted with.
Thanks Ruben for your work. I wish I had known the Boost app earlier.
Im now eagerly awaiting Boost for Lemmy.

it's still working fine for me - i wonder if it's because i'm technically a mod?

Based on this thread on that other site, yes, it's still working if you're a mod of a sub.

fascinating. maybe that's why r/pics caved and reopened the sub, they don't want their boost privileges removed.
shame it's wasted on me, as i'm only using to check my own old content since i moved here

Still working for me, maybe try to create a sub if you're still wanna browse reddit?

It's a good call for me to use reddit less. It'll encourage me more to spend more time on Lemmy. For now I'm using Voyager and so far it's not bad.

yeah! am currently on jerboa on android, works pretty well but im very excited for boost! ditching reddit was a very good decision and its a bit frustrating to me to see how many people desperately cling to it with the api key patches, moderator exploit etc. just move on

Relay and Infinity still work. The latter can also subscribe to subs without an account.

RIF as well. You can't log in, but 80% of the features are still there. I can subscribe, block, and hide keywords. Good enough for basic browsing.

You can use reVanced to patch most all of 3rd party clients with your own client id. It keeps working and you can stay logged in, vote, post, whatever. I just picked one that was going to end up with a Lemmy version that I could use in the meantime and get use to it :).
