I still have the old sync app, it worked once and then error 401 after closing the app..
Well yeah. The old sync app is for Reddit and Reddit killed it.
I know that, it was just mildly interesting that it worked for a split second
Probably just cached data
It wasn't, it loaded some new posts once and then stopped. It didn't load any images but the actual feed came through. I thought the app started working again so I started refreshing and going through menus before I could take any screenshots
You know, if you're really-really-really want to use Sync for Reddit again, you can patch it to replace the Reddit API key with your own API key using Revanced Manager. I'll left it to you to google it yourself if you're actually that motivated.
I could do that but I am not motivated to go to such lengths, even though I already use revanced manager
I am fully aware of the workarounds, I just thought I'd mention something funny that happened when I clicked on the old app randomly, and it worked for a bit
