I think the bot was already down before the blackout. I remember trying to set a !remind me and nothing happened. Then I read somewhere that the bot was now offline.
No, it's still online. I just checked, and I/RemindMeBot is still commenting.
Maybe it was sub specific then…
No, it actually was down for a bit. It couldn't find new comments once PushShift's access to Reddit was cut off (but it could still remind you of stuff it knew about before PushShift went down), so the dev started frantically writing code to fix the issue.

Will it still work after the API changes though? I'm assuming whomever runs that bot doesn't want to pay through the ass to continue posting.
I think Reddit made exemptions for bots but don't quote me on that
Comments starting with "!remind me" are automatically removed in some subreddits, maybe that was the issue.
I got a reminderjust as the blackouts started
