I have every *arr in existence, I don’t pay for anything. But I have YT Premium Family. I still use ReVanced for sponsor block and other customization preferences, but I have it for my family so they can be bullshit free on every device.
It is the best Discord alternative, and it can be self hosted. But there’s no interconnectivity between instances. So not really a fediverse alternative
Got an 8BitDo controller off Amazon, you can get a little clip for it that holds your phone. Best $20 ever. Kinda heavy to be gaming on the go but in bed it’s great
I didn’t try the process myself, last I heard they were using keys extracted from the official Reddit app. Maybe they thought that was a bad idea, and went a different route. Sorry, was just going by what I heard previously
Both Sync & RiF have patches available from the ReVanced team, they’ve taken the API keys from the official Reddit app and you can then inject them into Sync/RiF using:
One of the new Android apps, Jerboa & Liftoff are open source available on F-Droid. I’m using Connect for Lemmy available on the playstore and Boost will be available soon as well as a myriad of other apps
I’m in the same boat, but thought I’d let people know just in case. My app of choice RelayForReddit is switching to a subscription model but 70% of my Reddit use was NSFW subs so not really worth it for me
Jerboa was ok, but things started to irritate me so I found Liftoff, which was a much more polished app. Currently using Connect for Lemmy as it’s the closest to my original Reddit app
I know everyone has made the switch, but the ReVanced team have stolen the API keys out of the real Reddit app and have made patchers available for multiple Reddit apps including RiF.
You’ll need a fresh copy of the APK and:

Obviously NSFW is a no go but everything else should work.
You can get ReVanced which is a modification of the original YouTube app. It has pretty much everything except DeArrow.

You’ll need a YouTube APK file and it will patch the app directly on your phone, it will also let you select what “patches” you want. So you can customize your YT experience, but it works exactly like the official app in every other way.
