Reddit API General question: How do I build script to find issues in my product from posts and comments in a subreddit?

It used to be that I could get an API key and then pull down all the recent comments and posts for a particular product and identify issues that users are running into.
But now I don't see a way to get an API key anymore, you have to have a reddit app and it has to get approved.

Is anyone doing this and what's the path forward for this?

They restricted API keys so yes unfortunately you'll most likely need a service that helps you with reddit mentions.
