drifty’s f-droid repo also offers pre-patched binaries in case you don’t want to patch it yourself
Fuck, I needed this when my Galaxy Tab kept crashing when trying to run ReVanced, but it’s fine now that I can export Morphe patches from my GOS. Saved for future notice!
What do you mean by “more properly maintained”? What’s wrong with Revanced?
There’s an ongoing issue and some infighting between the original maintainer and the contributors.
Where can we learn more?
Yup. I don’t see a reason this switch right now.
At least their GitHub looks okay.
That’s the second time in 5 minutes I’ve seen the word revanced and I never heard of it before. What’s going on?
YouTube Revanced is a patched version of the YouTube APK, which disables a bunch of shit like ads and whatnot. Also ties into the SponsorBlock API, which is super nice.
It started as “YouTube Vanced”, which was, as others said, “YouTube Advanced” minus the ‘Ad’. Play on words. Haha. Looked and functioned like the original YouTube app, because it was. Just patched.
The original Vanced team did a stupid and launched an NFT, which ended up in them getting C&D’d by Google. There is some debate on this, but any idiot would know that google absolutely knew about Vanced for quite some time, but the team monetizing it was the straw that broke the camel’s back.
Anyway, Vanced was forked and became “ReVanced”. They ended up building a whole patcher app and offered patches for other apps like Reddit is fun (RIP), TikTok, YouTube, and many more. To get rid of ads and the like.
Drama occurred within the Revanced team, so it was forked yet again into Morphe.
