Hello guys,

I was just wondering what's going to happen to websites such as https://safereddit.com/.

I mean, they're not 3rd party apps but I guess they're still using Reddit's API, right?

Thank you for your thoughts.

I self host my own libreddit which still works fine

They still seem to be working though, or at least the ones I was using are. So that would suggest they weren't using API keys to access stuff.

I guess so, yeah, but not sure how reddit will treat them, as we’ve seen some exceptions to the new rules for some apps already
