The cracked Sync app is going strong. They patched reddit official's api key into the apk, and also modified the app ID and browser agent to reflect the official one. They practically can't tell the traffic apart, so NSFW and everything is fully functional.
I know work arounds are available, I just don't want to now.
Really looking forward to Boost for Lemmy
Right there with you man. In the meantime I'm enjoying 0.18.1, the web interface is already significantly improved over 0.18.0
I'm looking forward to my instance upgrading from 0.18.0. I use the browser and the newer ones go back to the spot you were on the feed when you go back instead of moving you to the top of the feed on mobile. Once I get to use the newer version using the site on mobile will be a dream.
This will be an endless chase though since reddit and push app updates whenever and break the modified apps.
Yes and no, I've worked on the backend for big apps before. You generally try and keep backwards compatibility as long as possible to give clients time to update. You can't just change API routes and have all the clients be on the latest version overnight.
I would understand your argument if you were talking about a Smart TV app like Netflix, in which they have to assure API backwards compatibility for TV OSes that are slow to approve app updates (or won't accept at all once the TV is old enough).
But in the case of Reddit which app is on mobile phones, I find it hard to believe they'd be too worried about blocking access to older versions of their API. If someone can access Reddit's app, then this person has internet access, and so is able to update the app.
damn, i wish iOS had sideloading.
people would be tripping over themselves to have access to a patched Apollo.
Friend of mine cracked the Apollo app and sideloaded it. So that's possible.
Sharing from what he told me (and please don't ask me any questions, I've never used an iOS device in my life):
I think they replace it weekly, this is the current one.
Thanks
Relay also works with no hacks or edits whatsoever, just download and go.
No NSFW content though, but even that works if you're a mod of any NSFW subreddit. I reckon they'll fix that pretty darn soon though.
With that said, I don't really care personally. I end up on reddit when I find links now and then, but that's about it. I never actually go there just to spend time now.

This has been discussed in the official reddit sync discord and the original dev, being the champ he is, even contributed to it.
Sync for Lemmy is also on the way. I never used Boost so can't tell how it compares to Sync, but I used it for >12 years and was always super happy.
Might as well plug the new /c/syncforlemmy@lemmy.world here, I guess.

alr commented above but Artemis is available, either as a tweak on chariz or a cracked .ipa version over on cypwn
It is possible with trollstore or sideloadly
there's a similar solution (i think) for Apollo, it's called Artemis and is made by iCraze.
Do you have a link to their official discord?
