It’s not on every instance, so Libreddit still functions, but this seems to happen more and more on different instances. Then will get fixed and then fail again later the next day or week.

Is Reddit’s API literally changing the structure of the data payload randomly? Does anyone know why this is happening?

    Does anyone know why this is happening?

    same reason as the subreddit blackouts and the exodus to Lemmy back in June – Reddit is trying to lock down their API to and restrict it to “legitimate” (ie. paying) customers

      No money = No responses. I will astroturf the site before letting everyone use the API for free again.
