Some users wonder if the dev will be charged for having it still up, others argue Reddit can't charge him without having signed a contract. Everyone is confused as to why the API change hasn't made it inoperable.

Why is Boost still working?

I can't wait for the Lemmy Boost app. Wish kbin had an API so there'd be apps for it as well though.

@UnhappyCamper

@Jcb2016 Good news… at least two kbin apps are in the works. Follow @dansup for their Kbam app, and @hariette for their Artemis app. Artemis sounds like it’ll be heavily Apollo inspired, whereas Kbam is doing something a bit different.

I swear I have a kbin app called /kbin that got advertised to me here. For Android.

This is a fancy bookmark from wherever your browser is. I have the same "app" and so do people who use Firefox on iOS. What you're looking at is essentially the same thing as kbin on the mobile internet.

The apps in development will have other QoL features that will be more similar to Apollo (but I hope more similar to Infinity for Android).

The API will come. It's still very early days for the kbin project. It's, uh, kind of alpha software.

They’re working on the kbin api stuff right now. It’sa priority. Also, check out Artemis magazine on kbin
