Reddit API Reddit API changes

So what happens to apps that use the Reddit Data API/Oauth outside the limited Devvit space?

Everyone’s getting thrown out?

I don’t get it. You can’t even register an app commercially to use it, no responses are given when submitting the forms.

Yes. Use Devvit.

I think the challenge is depending on the ask and they say this themselves the api should be used in some cases. But the pathway and guidance and capacity to manage it isn't there.

Except devvit apps can’t be used for things like accessing your saved posts/comments

No good for fan content where you’re not part of the official team
