I thought Apollo was killed off by Reddit?
The API is no longer accessible. Good chance this has fully caught up with you now. It can take a few months for all servers and paths to the site to be closed off.
EDIT:
I have been informed people are retaining their own Reddit API key.
Based on this; it's possible Reddit is shutting those down. Chances are you will need to go through the process you used to get that API Key and ask why it isn't working.
Whether official or side loaded, that doesn't change the App doesn't have access to the Reddit API to connect and provide the data.
Unless something happened that the API is still up and Apollo still has access.
The connection that a lot of people were using was apollo://reddit-oauth so I'm wondering if Reddit finally broke it.
Edit: by connection I mean the redirect.
Edit 2: or potentially Christian made a change as it just occurred to me this could be something that he was maintaining.
If it showed on Reddit's side as Apollo; I'm sure Reddit had something to do with ending it. Doing that is the same as going in direct as far as Reddit is concerned. Still bypasses their stuff and they aren't getting paid.
This is what I meant when I said it can take a few months. Sometimes it takes a bit for companies to find all connections and ways people use to get in.
I am wondering if these people haven't yet had the prompt to log in again, yet. Idk if you had the same experience I did, but I had to log in at least once a day because it seemed to not remember.
Yea, I learned real fast that I had to wait for it to expire each day before I could re-auth. Doing it preemptively, like wearing a condom in South Park, did nothing.
Well, there's your issue.
Where'd you get this idea?
For servers and everything connected to stop working?
Not a lot of large scale things like this are instant on or instant off.
Others say theirs is still working. So apparently something is up.
Sure, there may be some delay for CDN's and redundant servers to sync up, but we're talking minutes and maybe, just maybe hours, never months.
Thanks for that, Bruce.
