Hi, I'm Billy and I built Lander because I wanted something to fill the gap Apollo left. Lander is not intended to be clone, but it absolutely has roots in the Apollo UX.

To handle auth challenges, I built and opensourced Columbia. Columbia is a selfhostable proxy that separates identity from content. It uses OHTTP and HPKE to securely relay traffic to/from your Lander client and Reddit. No API key required. I provide a Columbia proxy for use, but you can point Lander at your own deployment via settings.

The app has in-app purchases for donations that do NOT unlock any functionality. The app is free.

We maintain Lander, a small non-commercial third-party Reddit client. Our registered OAuth installed-app client was revoked without notice under the November 2025 developer-platform changes, and our support ticket has gone unanswered for several weeks.

We want to comply, not circumvent. Two questions:

Is there a compliant client-registration path for a small non-commercial client under the current terms, or is third-party browsing access closed?
We've moved to a bring-your-own-credentials model (each user authenticates with their own Reddit app). Is that an acceptable posture, or are user-registered keys also being restricted by account age? We're seeing some accounts blocked entirely.

Happy to move this to DMs or a more appropriate channel — we just need a yes/no on the path forward so we can plan. Thanks.
