Do not use that page. Just swipe your finger on the left side to focus only on your subscibe subreddits. It won’t show all this freaking drama and too many adds. Read carefully and check the top left corner because some ads looked like a subreddit page and don’t freaking click it cause it’s an ad.
I’m trying Thunder right now and this one is very nice as well. But I’m getting the same problems as Connect… I click on a post from my profile and it says the post doesn’t exist.
At least on Thunder, it still loads the main post and I can scroll to my comment (which is how I’m replying to you. On Connect, my comment doesn’t even show up and other comments are missing.
@RealNooshie looks awful. Literally not a single thing you actually subscribed to. Not to mention the actual content is almost nothing (that single post at the top from r/AskReddit)
adblock everything except content on mobile browser, that’s how i used to do it, nowadays i don’t use reddit much so idk how it would go with the new status, i know they returned the old mobile web app but they may have removed access to nsfw on it. i even adblocked awards, chat, anything that wasn’t vanilla reddit.
Yes, it’s initially made to patch youtube. The recommended youtube apk to patch right now is v18.19.35, or you can download pre-patched apk of youtube here: https://github.com/revanced-apks/build-apps/releases . You’ll also need to install Vanced MicroG if your phone is not rooted.
That fixes the ads but still the official reddit app is a huge backstep from the now cutoff apps that made browsing reddit a pleasure. It’s just a rippoff off all the terible algorihtm based Facebook, Twitter and Instagram apps that constantly show me posts that i’ve neither subscribed to nor I am interested to see. It’s a shame.
There is an option in revanced manager to patch reddit sync to use your own oauth client id. I just tried it out and the patched reddit sync just crashed when it start loading the frontpage. oh well.
I actually tried with latest version of Sync Dev already installed in my phone. What version are you using? Also, which google docs? I only follow the instruction in revanced manager that said to put the client id string in /data/storage/emulated/0/reddit_client_id_revanced.txt
Here’s the full instructions.
Also, you have to uninstall all versions of Sync before you start patching. The guide I linked has everything from creating your own API key to running the patcher.
Something I liked about the official app, that no other seemed to have, was the ability to flip through posts, one to the next, without having to return to your feed. If anyone knows of a Lemmy app that can do this, let me know please!
The official reddit app would frequently not load images/posts/comments etc or even sometimes fully stop loading anything at all. I have never had these kind of issues with the third party apps, or much of any other apps of any type for that matter.

Random ads in the official reddit app appear way too often.
feature not a bug
Dude, scrolling by this on connect and panicked that the ads were already hitting Lemmy!
Babe charge your phone you’re making me nervous
Don’t post that junk on here! ;)
Apollo for lemmy when?
Wefwef is pretty much exactly that
Try www.wefwef.app!
The World economic forum world economic forum app?
if u liked RiF, Connect to Lemmy is a p good app. After messing w the settings browsing lemmy feels so much cleaner.
How do you hide comments on connect? I’ve just started using it.
Edit: Never mind figured it out! Just long press, and you can change it in settings if you want.
I’ve been having some html errors in Connect, I’m back on Jerboa for now. I like Connect’s UI a lot more though
Was having alot of the same with Connect, then there was an update on the play store and seems soo much more stable now.
Same here, I like Connect but I can’t load a single comment on there so for now I’m on Jerboa. TBD where I end up permanently though.

I really do like thunder though so far it’s #1

That might be fixed now, I had the same issue on Connect a short while ago, and it’s working now. I’m just waiting for Sync to come out for Lemmy.
I downloaded latest .apk on apkpure a few mins ago, not fixed. Maybe it is on playstore though, but I’m not touching that
@RealNooshie looks awful. Literally not a single thing you actually subscribed to. Not to mention the actual content is almost nothing (that single post at the top from r/AskReddit)
Ooof. I’d rather use old.reddit.com on my phone’s browser and that looks like shit. Really looking forward to the Sync for Lemmy app.
Me, using cleaned-up reddit on browser is the only way I’d use it. I preferred it even to RIF sometimes.
How would you clean it up for a mobile browser?
adblock everything except content on mobile browser, that’s how i used to do it, nowadays i don’t use reddit much so idk how it would go with the new status, i know they returned the old mobile web app but they may have removed access to nsfw on it. i even adblocked awards, chat, anything that wasn’t vanilla reddit.
It’s simple, really.
Note that I haven’t actually tested this with actual Reddit app.
Edit: oops, replied to a wrong thread
Does this work for YouTube?
Yes, it’s initially made to patch youtube. The recommended youtube apk to patch right now is v18.19.35, or you can download pre-patched apk of youtube here: https://github.com/revanced-apks/build-apps/releases . You’ll also need to install Vanced MicroG if your phone is not rooted.
I also saw patched reddit apk there fwiw.
Instructions unclear: iPhone now running Windows Subsystem for Android. Plz help.
Very simple. Download now an Android Subsystem for iOS and you can use an iPhone in an Android in an iPhone.
Deeper. We have to go deeper!

Works perfectly fine for me. Did you use the right APK that’s linked in the Google Docs with the instructions?
I actually tried with latest version of Sync Dev already installed in my phone. What version are you using? Also, which google docs? I only follow the instruction in revanced manager that said to put the client id string in

Tried using one version behind instead of the most recent version and it works!
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 😞
It’s simple, really.
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?
That’s exactly why they want you to use it.

Yeah, it sucks. Thanks for posting a screenshot of an ad into my Lemmy feed, I guess.
I didn’t actually see it was from Reddit. I was like WTF, promoted ads here now.
That 15% battery status is giving me anxiety by proxy.

When the Internet was created, not only did phones not have batteries, they had their own power grid, separate from that used by other appliances.
Wow it looks awful. I miss RIF
Tears roll down my cheeks when I think of RIF
Rest in power
