They can enjoy the shitty official app
or use patched third party clients
No matter the tutorial, written or video, I can never get a revanced version of any app (Sync & YT) working. In the end I just gave up Reddit and got NewPipe for YT.
Idk about reddit but I've been using ReVanced YouTube ane YouTube Music for a while and it works perfectly. Let me know if you need help getting it set up.
Relay still works for some reason
Pretty sure they are operating at a loss while they roll out a subscription model.
Yep, but I'm willing to bet that the dev negotiated something behind the scenes with Reddit to get extra time. If not, he's probably racking up some serious API costs as Relay is one of the few remaining third-party apps that works without any modifications.
Why would reddit be lenient? Reddit doesn't want 3rd party money. if they did they would have put out decent rates that 3rd party apps could actually support and would have generated revenue from all the apps. Their goal was to kill them all and they will. The number of people willing to pay $10-12/mo for a reddit 3rd party client that doesn't allow NSFW posts is going to be tiny.
