Posting here since the boost sub on Reddit is completely locked.

As of a few hours ago the Boost for reddit app is giving me 403 errors and won't load anything at all. I've been continuing to use Boost for Reddit since the app-ocolypse since im a mod. But it seems like it might actually be dead now?

Can anyone else confirm?

Bug report is getting a little spicy.

Kinda crazy the devs shut down wchill's patches and insist on the more fragile "lets generate a random user agent".

The redirect URL and user agent manual spoof is much more reliable because at least it really does look like someone's custom app, and closes options for them in the future to block it again.

Did revanced manager change? I just downloaded the latest version on my new phone and I don't have the ability to patch an app not listed?

Cant really say anything about this. I have 1.23.3. It worked on this version for me. I dont know if its the latest one or one of the older versions
