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?

      Same! I really thought i hit the lottery when I randomly used it a year after it shut down. I thought wow how many people could still be using this after that long. I just found everyone.

    This was the reason I switched to Lemmy. Still transitioning, but hopefully the community grows on here.

      Replying to this for visibility. This worked for me. Took less then 5 minutes.

      Thank you so much!

      edit: huh… just realized your username…

      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?

        Initially it also only partially worked for me (couldnt login) bcz i had a mistake in authentication url. Later i followed the guide precisely step by step and it worked.

          I followed the guide step by step and i still get 403 blocked. The faq says I’ve messed up the user agent text but I’ve copy paste it directly from the guide and only changed my username.

          android:com.username.reddit:v1.0 (by /u/username) (using my own username)

          So it looks like that android:com.MyName.reddit:v1.0 (by /u/MyName

            You’d want something like this:

            android:com.username.reddit:v1.0 (by /u/Kon)

            Don’t change that first username
