Oct 20 2:27 AM PDT We are seeing significant signs of recovery. Most requests should now be succeeding. We continue to work through a backlog of queued requests. We will continue to provide additional information.
At this point I’d nearly appreciate the removal of old.reddit or RES. My desktop browsing experience hasn’t changed in roughly a decade and a half and that’s a shitload of inertia. A few trims of my subscribed list has limited my exposure to the worst of the slop and botting.
Mobile is absolutely a different situation for both Reddit and Lemmy alike. I found Jerboa shortly after the API disaster and have stuck with it since, but I probably need to look into tweaks for desktop/browser Lemmy. RES and old.reddit are a killer combo but fuck their ‘official’ app and the ‘new’ interface.
Regardless, I no longer participate on Reddit and highly prefer interacting here; more interesting and informative conversations by far.
Outage is ending.

I’ve just been on Reddit and it’s having some serious issues right now.
Reddit has had issues for years, that’s why so many of us are here.
Oh, you meant the aws thing.
Using the old interface seems to yield better results there. It appears to be their newer API model that’s suffering.
The old Reddit interface is always the best one.
