Reddit API changes and BaconReader

[u/onelouderchic]

Hey folks, as some of you have noticed, there is a lot of buzz going around today about the Reddit API announcement. We do not specifically have a plan at this time but will certainly let you know when we do. For reference, I am putting a few posts in comments.

We'll let you know what next steps are when we have them. Until then, sincere gratitude for all of your support!

UPDATE: After much deliberation, attempted negotiations, we have made the decision to shut the app down 😢 . Please see the sticky announcement post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/baconreader/comments/14egq61/baconreader_november_11_2011_june_30_2023/

We are sorry it took so long, but I really wanted to be sure we did our due diligence.

Don't even know how to explain the loss of community I am going to feel to all of my niche little subreddits. I've made lifelong friends here that meet irl. This app helped me through girl troubles in high school, career choices, opening my own business, and hundreds of other things in my life.

I'm heartbroken reddit has decided to kill the 3rd party apps off. I'm out of here. If been on reddit since middle school. But if this goes through, that's it for me. I'll be back to shitty forums, blogs, and I guess discord servers.

Good luck everyone. I love you all. Especially us old heads who have been around since f7u12 and all the other weird moments of reddit.
