A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Other people have said the same, but Apollo was my most used App on my phone.
I find that during the day, I mainly browse Reddit on my phone, as I can't stand not having RES on my work laptop. I'll have to see what sort of adjustments I'll have to make, as I was looking at using both Reddit (via browser on my laptop) and Lemmy (via wefwef on my phone) whilst the lemmy community gains a bit more traction.
Reddit missed their own deadline for enabling rate limits and now they are weeks away. 🤦♀️
Hi Devs,
Over the last few months, we’ve shared updates on our Data API Terms and Developer Terms. Shortly, we will begin enforcing the previously announced, updated API rate limits. Rate limits will go into effect for all apps with usage above the free limit in the coming weeks, and some changes will be noticeable over the next 24 hours.
As we have shared, this will not impact non-commercial bots operating within free rate limits or moderator tools.
Free API access rates are as follows:
100 queries per minute per OAuth client id if you are using OAuth authentication
10 queries per minute if you are not using OAuth authentication
The vast majority of third-party apps and bots fall into the free usage category and should not see any disruptions. Our free rates account for bursts in usage.
For apps that exceed these limits, we have exempted select clients (for example, accessibility-focused apps like RedReader, Luna, and Dystopia), mod bots, and mod tools. If your bot or tool is affected unexpectedly, please reach out here.

Fuck Spez
Is there a countdown on when RIF will stop working? Is it based on midnight GMT? EST? PST? CST?
Lol set up a countdown website like its New Year's Eve
I haven't seen a specific time, but today will be the last day :(
Such a great app, I will miss it.
Apollo really held on for dear life. Worked until sometime this afternoon.
I tried Reddit on the browser but it just doesn’t work like I want it to on my phone. There are many people who don’t know a different version of Reddit than their terrible app and site. It will continue but not with me.
Baconreader is now turned off :(
My preferred app (RedReader) was allowed to stay,apparently for free, but I still deleted my account. A shame, it was a great app!
That’s crazy, I wonder how they managed to stay - and for free!
It was granted an exception due to its accessibility features.
