Hi All,

If anyone still wants to use Reddit Sync there was a post up on the Reddit page for the Revanced patch. In case you might want to stick to Sync till the Lemmy app launches.

Here is the tutorial shared by the creator, u/KobeW50

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wHvqQwCYdJrQg4BKlGIVDLksPN0KpOnJWniT6PbZSrI/preview?pli=1

I tried it and it worked. You can try it on Sync Pro if you have the apk.

I am pasting u/hihowareyou0_0’s simple guide.

Go to https://www.reddit.com/prefs/apps Click on “Are you a developer? create an app…” Give it any name. Set it as “installed app.” IMPORTANT: Set " redirect uri " to http://redditsync/auth create the app. TAKE NOTE OF THE CLIENT SECRET (the gibberish text and numbers below the Name) Go to any Text editor (I use an app called “just notes”) Copy + paste the client secret. (And nothing else.) Save the file and call it " reddit_client_id_revanced.txt " MAKE SURE TO NOT SAVE IT ON ANY Folder, JUST THE INTERNAL STORAGE/ROOT Download (not install) this sync for reddit apk Install & open Revanced Manager Make sure all permissions are enabled (Especially " All files access “) Go to the “settings” tab. Enable “experimental patches support.” Restart revanced manager Go to the “Patcher” tab. Click on " Select an application. " Then CLICK ON “Storage” and select the .apk we downloaded. Click on “select a patch.” Select " Change Oauth Client ID” (and optionally “disable ads”) click on done. Then finally click on “patch.” Now wait for it to patch and install the patched apk! If it asks you to update, DON’T. (just a warning)

    I tried this patch pre shutdown expecting it to work once the API change went into effect, but then it didn’t. I tinkered around for a little bit but then decided since I’m already on Lemmy I’m going to fully commit to just being here. Going through my reddit account sometime this week when I have time to get any info I want and then deleting my account.
