as the title says, all of these frontends are dead now, which means that its impossible to view any of the datat that exists on these sites if we dont own an account

is that it? should we just quit using these sites or what?

      They don’t use the API, they appear as web browsers and download the actual reddit webpages and extract the posts and comments from that.

      Which is certainly more inefficient and stressing reddit’s servers more than using the API.
