It's simple, really.
Note that I haven't actually tested this with actual Reddit app.
Edit: oops, replied to a wrong thread
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.
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
/data/storage/emulated/0/reddit_client_id_revanced.txtHere'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.
Tried using one version behind instead of the most recent version and it works!
