If you are going to use reddit on mobile and are on android, use the Revanced version of Boost, Sync or the official Reddit app
Pretty self explanatory but if you are going to continue to use reddit on mobile, switch to one of these options. You will need to have to create your own api key but that is easy to do.

Brief Guide for Sync: https://archive.is/K6OXB
As pirates we are known to adapt to rough seas. There are always methods for us to keep accessing content and reddit isn’t going to be able to stop us.

I recommend creating a throwaway account for this. Sign up as a developer at the above link and then use the key you get from it.
Wait, why? Is this a workaround to having the apps working after the end of the month or what?
Anyway now that Sync for Lemmy is going to be a thing I don't think I'd use that kind of workaround... Only to give a glance at the communities that I want here ofc.
Lets hope sync can make Lemmy actually easy to use. You'd imagine that stuff like linking another community should be one of the core features of something like this, but sadly it's not currently working.
Do you mean like this?
!piracy@lemmy.ml
!piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
!piracy@kbin.social
I just linked to these by typing "!piracy" and selecting them from the drop-down list that appeared. They should automatically link to the communities via feddit.de for you, even though I'm on lemmy.world. Maybe it's new.
I LOVE YTREVANCED APP .https://revancedapp.org/
That's not the official website and may contain malware, if anybody is trying to download ReVanced check https://reddthat.com/post/1227197
You can also use Redreader. It's been my main way of accessing reddit for years and it's actually the only app (that I know of) with the API exception for being accessibility focused and non-monetized. It's FOSS and has been ad free forever, although I fear reddit will make them start serving reddit's ads on the first.
Personally, I'm working on a script to scrape certain subs every few days and display them in a page I'm self-hosting. Who needs their API? All I really care about over there anymore is tech related info I need for my job.
There's even a bot that retrieves stuff to lemmy

Nice - yeah, the API is just a convenient way to access the data. The truth is that if a browser can view reddit.com, a script can pull the data and put it somewhere else.
I tested out Stealth's reddit scraper and it works well. It'll probably break from time to time, but that's something I'm used to with Newpipe for youtube. I want to cut down on reddit use anyways.
