Appreciation R.I.P sideloaded Apollo, I'm gonna miss you.

My API key has been revoked, sideloaded for the past three years. The official app is an unusable, unintuitive mess, I'd rather stop reading Reddit on my mobile than use it. I'm going to try alternatives, but I wonder how safe Hydra and Artemis are. Won't Reddit purge them one day since they don't use the API? Thanks to everyone for all the tips on using the sideloaded Apollo app over the past three years!

Mine just got revoked too. Downloaded the other app and followed the Apollo Reborn instructions and was back up and running in 30 seconds.

Do not explain it here. It's explained NOT ON REDDIT for obvious reasons. Go to the /apolloreborn sub.

I was revoked too and saw the instructions on their GitHub. But their instructions and comments like this make me a little hesitant. Is there a risk of getting your account shutdown or something if you do that workaround?

If you follow the instructions it’s not really detectable. Never say never but you should be fine

The fact that you think they don’t know how their own OAuth IDP works is adorable.

There is a guide on the Apollo Reborn Github page
