Seems that someone at Reddit decided to grant read access to RIF, this morning I opened the app just for kicks and it wouldn't load anything. Well I tried again after lunch (Europe CET time) and it could access the front page but I was logged out. Trying to login shows a different logon page and even with valid credentials gives out a 'Bad request' response.

That means they are not just feeling the heat, they are probably burning really bad.

The argument was that API requests cost them money so we may as well hurt them financially a bit by continuing to browse on RiF. Spez can't do anything right ๐Ÿ˜‚

Not a good sign if we literally can't tell if this is a galaxy brain strategy or a technical failure.
