This app. (lemmy.world)

Finally tried the official Reddit app. It's as bad as they say.

They said you can patch out the ads using revanced manager, but I'm not going to try it.

I've tried revanced but I'm not tech savvy enough to figure it out. I can't even find where to download from some of those repositories ๐Ÿ˜ž

It's simple, really.

  • if you have Reddit app installed, uninstall it first
  • download revanced manager and install the apk. https://revanced.app/
  • find Reddit app's apk in apkmirror.com and download it
  • open revanced manager and select Patcher -> "select an application" -> storage and select the downloaded Reddit apk.
  • make sure "disable ads" is in the list of selected patches
  • run the patcher, wait until it completed
  • don't install the resulting apk right away yet. Instead, open the "..." menu on the top right of the screen and backup the patched apk
  • close the revanced manager app and open your file manager. Locate the patched apk you just backed up in the download folder, then install it.

Note that I haven't actually tested this with actual Reddit app.

That's a great tutorial! Will I need to redo this process with every app update?
