From what I understand, this needs to have the base vendor app (YT, YT Music, Reddit) installed before, right?

Not really. You just gotta install Micro G from their own git repo and patch it. Just like revanced.

Nope, you just need the APK

[-] Samsy@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago

Yes and it's a bit misleading, you need microg installed.

Why would you need YouTube installed to install a patched version of YouTube?

The MicroG observation is a real one though.
