It was excluded from the exodus due to it catering towards disabled people. It also it shows no add but you have to agree to reddits terms and use before using it . I my self am done with reddit and been like that for a long time but if anyone wants to lurk or use reddit i will reccomend this app with a vpn you trust.

    I’m not interested in using Reddit again either, but I’m interested in how Redreader still works after the API pricing changes. Any idea? Maybe it spoofs requests from the Reddit web client rather than going through the Reddit API?

    Edit: Ah. Yup. Apparently I can’t read. Sorry about that and thanks to responders.

      Redreader got free access to the api, as it is the app that most people with disabilities use.

      RedReader was designed for screen readers. Since it was built primarily as an accessability tool the developer contacted the admins and was given an exemption to their pricing rules.

      As i explained in the post reddit let them run because of the app catering towards disabled people. But someday spez will snap and say his app is good enough for the disabled.
