At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.

stealth doesn't work at all, it just says something went wrong.

I only get the 'something went wrong' error when a post has been scraped, then deleted. So you go to load it but it no longer exists.

I just tried it again before replying and it worked fine for me.

Not the original person replying but I tried it as well and opening the app gives me the same error message.

There's a message at the bottom that says

Stealth might stop working soon

that when clicked says

Considering it talks about old.reddit.com I imagine the VPN issue is effecting it as well.

It is odd, it still works fine for me.

That notice has been there since the third party change. Under 'Data' - 'Reddit Source' I had to change it from 'Teddit' to 'Reddit'. Teddit stopped working quite soon after the API change.

It seems to not be effecting all VPN connections, I'm wondering if yours just hasn't been blocked yet?

I am using Orbot, which always shows up as a TOR exit node. Strange that they would allow that. I always pick somewhere in western Europe so my time zone stays the same.

it won't load anything. not the front page, no search results, nothing. i recall trying like half a year ago too, and with similar results.
