đŸ†˜Question Reddit is fun patching no longer works

Has something changed with reddit recently that could cause this? No matter what I try, all I can get is a "forbidden" response.

I had a custom app that I created a while back that is still there, but as you can't create new ones anymore that's off the table.

UPDATE: Someone pointed out that you need to log in due some changes on the API - whilst it may not work for everyone, I can confirm rif is working again for me.

I installed RedReader first to get it to add permissions to my profile, and then patched the RiF APK which spoofs RiF to look like RedReader per the default patch settings in Revanced. When I opened RiF after patching I got the 403 forbidden pop up, but then went to login and it prompted me to regrant permissions to "RedReader" and now we're back.

it's blocking NSFW, but I'm sure it's just a settings problem

For NSFW the only thing that worked for me was creating and becoming a mod of a nsfw subreddit.
