    Youtube is also sending notifications about a coachella live stream, even if the notification settings/preferences are turned off.

    Even if you have Revanced.

      Luckily it has not happened, yet. Either older version or they’re rolling it out in waves once again.

      But fucking hell, if any app sends me an irrelevant notification without my permission. It loses it’s permit to exist on my phone.

        I mean… it’s quite literally happened already. I’m not the only one who got the notification so they are definitely doing something. Maybe not with all accounts but 1 is too many.

          Sry. It hasn’t happened for me yet or anyone near me. So they must be doing it in waves, which is usually done based on location.

          I do agree that even 1 is too many, just that it’s not as widespread as of now.

            Ah, got it.

            I wonder if its a location thing. I’m in northern Europe, if anyone got the same notification, let me know where you at

      Haven’t heard about Revanced before. I’m pying for YT Premium but since I use Spotify for music YT Music isn’t helping their case if their raising the price.

          Wait, what’s the drama? I’ve just installed Revanced on a new device in the past month and it seemed fine?

            It works fine. For now.

            The dev team had disagreements, a bunch left, made their own thing, Morphe. Thats all I know/remember. There was a reddit thread explaining the shenanigans, you should be able to find that fairly easily.

            I’ve sort of skimmed a few posts talking about the drama. I don’t have specifics but from what I’ve read the main guy at Revanced is a bit of a ego and doesn’t know how to code (very well). The people who know how to code tried to work with him, got fed up and left.

                  It’s been a fight the whole dang time. The lead dev is a shite programmer with a gigantic ego and a control freak. He was infamously awful on the emulation subreddit. Deeply disrespectful to the actual emulator devs. MAME team especially have a long lived hatred of Retroarch.

                  Occasionally he’ll rewrite code that was working fine and break something that previously worked. Like…NETCODE. For example. Broke it and refused to take the L. So the guy who wrote the netcode backend quit out of frustration. That’s just one of a billion examples.

                  His ego is rivaled by the likes of stenzek (Duckstation emulator, and front end wizard for Dolphin and PCSX2) the guy behind Simple64, and TeknoParrot. Except those guys are actually good programmers, just insufferable.

                    Hmm well thats disappointing to hear. Retroarch worked very well on my android device a few years ago. Might be better to check if theres other options to use in the future.
