Yesterday I patched the Reddit app with revanced, I figured that if I went there from time to time at least I'd avoid ads. Omfg that app is a bigger piece of shit that when I diched it a year and half ago, unintuitive mess, horrible UX and UI, slow AF, makes my phone hot as if I was playing a game wtf, even without the API protest that app deserves all the 1 starts it can get.

I didn't think the UI was the worst thing in the world and I was gonna just grit my teeth and use it, but holy shit, the drain on my battery was insane. Even when I didn't have the app open. My battery was only lasting a couple of hours on a full charge. I had to ditch it.
