Hello everyone,
Disclaimer: I enjoy Lemmy, it’s a great place, I post in a few communities, it’s nice.
However, I always feel like we a missing “a few people”, which are the people still on Reddit thanks to the revanced apps, but would probably leave if they had to use the official one.
So my question (and it’s purely a theoretical discussion, as I guess no one here has any real idea on what’s being decided by Reddit management) is the one in the title, or in other words: how long before Reddit starts tracking down revanced apps to force them to either pay a legit app (such as Infinity or Narwhal).
My current belief is that it’s pretty challenging to completely kill a revanced app.
YouTube has made previous builds no longer work, but revanced seems to update and bypass it pretty quickly. To Reddit’s servers it probably just looks like you don’t update your client but still use the official app.
