It appears API rate limiting has effectively killed these alternatives. You essentially get nothing but “Too many requests” 429 errors.

Lemmy sadly does not have the active niche news and discussions I want. But now nothing can be read without going to Reddit. I hate Spez

I just started using rss for the communities I still want to know about.
You only need to add the reddit name of the community and .rss at the end in your reader.
For example https://www.reddit.com/r/technology/hot.rss

RSS feeds started throwing 429 errors today, like I predicted. They were never going to leave this loophole open.

Which reader are you using?

Is there any way to get sorting? Biggest problem seems to be that RSS is chronological only. Also, it doesn’t seem to provide any of the comments.

Not the most privacy-friendly option, but I use RSS in Inoreader.
