some asshole could extract/crack it and give her a massive bill […] it will be trivial for some asshole to make a revanced patch to bypass the subscription

Hi,

I stumbled on your post looking for a ReVanced patch for Infinity, not for bypassing the subscription though : until now, I was using a fork that implements login using Reddit’s official app’s API, but it stopped being updated while I was getting tired of some bugs, so I was hoping for a ReVanced patch which would accomplish the same thing. There isn’t, but I found one that allows you to bring your own API key, so I went with that.

Before using that fork though, I was bypassing the subscription, with Lucky Patcher : it worked fine, which, as you pointed out, means I was making the maintainer pay for me. I didn’t really feel bad about that because they made the choice not to support any of the abovementioned alternatives, even though when I discovered those, I switched because I still didn’t like Reddit getting that money.

Willing to give this a go.

Alright, don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any and request help if you need any

My go-to for getting non-repo debs automatically has been deb-get

Yes, I mentioned it in the Differences with deb-get & AM section of my tutorial.

it seems to go long periods of time between PR merges and releases (which includes adding new software)

Yeah, I could reiterate in that section that my app allows the user to add apps themselves.

Thank you for your appreciation !
