Looks like Boost has finally crashed to earth - Lemmy.world

I’ve been checking on the boost and save3rdpartyapps over the last couple of weeks and now boost won’t load any content. Bye bye Reddit I guess. Soon be time for boost to launch that rocket on Lemmy

Same here. Intermittent. I firmly just moved over to lemmy, after a phased entrance.

I have found Liftoff for Lemmy a good alternative, until boost for lemmy comes live.

Liftoff is my go to at the minute although I’m posting this from wefwef because it’s easier to see replies on there.

With time though all the apps will be great in their own ways.

And we have liftoff. ;)

Sorry, couldn’t resist.

I like what you did there

Boost died for me at 7PM EDT on 6/30, along with the rest of Reddit. Apparently, Reddit was incompetent with disabling everything, so it (along with other 3rd party app) still worked for some people if you were not logged in.

Odd. Mines still working. NSFW subs don’t load but normal content from a logged in account does.
Show threadHypovolemicJul 6, 2023

Mine died a couple hours ago.

I looked, and it was working, and two minutes later it was gone.

It’s kind of inconsistent for me. My only theory, based on something I saw on r/BoostForReddit, is that I’m still marked as a mod for an inactive sub. My alt doesn’t load anything.

I still have access to nsfw with ReVanced Sync. But afaik im not mod anywhere.

I am only running through official, not revanced. Probably won’t bother with that tbh. But good to know that those that want to use that patch can successfully, at least for now.

Same here, just uninstalled it. Jerboa and thunder are my lemmy apps, i will miss a niche sub but i will probably forget about it in few weeks.

I was a redditor since 2012, nothing last forever.

Long live Lemmy

I miss the niche subs I was a part of, I recreated them on Lemmy and hopefully they can gain some traction, I loved the discussions on those subs and I hope I can have the same experience on Lemmy. If not, life goes on.

guess it’s time to fully switch to lemmy! hopefully boost for lemmy gets released soon
Show threadMadbrad200Jul 6, 2023
Still works for me

ReVanced probably has a patch

Continuing the legacy of Vanced.

Yeah but after reddits actions I feel wrong using the place.

I shall miss boost for reddit

If you didn’t know, they are actively working on a Lemmy app.
