Rdx is a free Reddit reader that emerged after the API controversy. It was always limited - couldn’t post, couldn’t login, but utilized a hidden feature of reddit - you could just add .JSON to the end of a subreddit url and get the content back in in a useful format for an app like RDX to ingest.
From the RDX developer:
Last night reddit disabled JSON feeds that is affecting your usage of rdx website and app. I am trying to find ways to fix this. Maybe I can fix the apps using some workaround, maybe I can’t but I will try. You can keep the apps or get the apps from app stores.
Thanks for your support for RDX for over 3 years. A small project that reached millions of people.


it works in the browser but I keep getting 403’s when trying with cURL or Python requests or Powershell. My usual goto of spoofing my browser’s user agent in the header doesn’t work either.
Ahh damn, maybe it’s behind CloudFlare or something now.
