I heard about YT Revanced because it has no ads. then i saw they had TikTok revanced. It removes ads, lets you block all Tiktok lives(i fucking hate 99% of them) and it lets you set the minimum likes/views a video needs to show up, so i don't get random people who have 1 like on their shitty video.

I think you have to download the APKs from revanced.app but goddamn has it make YT and Tiktok better.

They work on Android.

JESUS PISSING CHRIST

I saw Youtube Revanced in the title and assumed it had been sued or shut down

sweat

From my understanding, Revanced is pretty much safe from lawsuits since they aren't providing hacked APKs and aren't infringing on intellectual property. That was the reason Youtube Vanced was shut down.

I seem to remember the cease and desist coming shortly after the Vanced guys tried launching NFTs or some such nonsense

Ah so it was because they tried making money from it? They would have been fine otherwise?

[-] doublepepperoni@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

I don't think so, but it certainly put an unnecessarily target on their back

[-] Cummunism@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

i wish i had known about it earlier, although i usually watch YT on my computer with ublock anyways so the ads on my phone werent as big of a deal. but with their YT Premium shit they can fuck right off. im so glad i have Android and can do this, fuck iPhone.
