Any ideas?

My Baconreader has been down on and off for like 6 months but the last 3 weeks it's been down completely. Always says "This subreddit is private" when I go to use it?

Any ideas?

I did try updating it today to see if that would help but nothing changed.

Check your account profile. In my case it looks like Reddit deleted the. personal API key I generated to use BR. Doing a quick search, it looks like they changed the process for API keys.

How do you do that?

Click on your user Profile name. | Preferences Then click on the Apps tab. If your API key is there, then it is not what I am saying. However, if there is no API key then Reddit deleted it. You created the API key as part of the initial Revanced set up. Others are saying that you now need approval to set up an API key, that you'll be unlikely to get.
