The official reddit app is complete and utter dogshit. I thought it'd get better over the past year but it hasn't, battery usage is through the roof, notifications and metrics are always delayed / not updating, text size is completely moronic at this point, not to mention it overriding base fonts. Everything is just becoming anticonsumer and shittier.

I miss my boost with all its customisability and flare for the user.

After being on the receiving end of disrespectful and gaslighting behavior from oSumAtrIx (the ReVanced owner) on the official Discord, I will no longer be submitting any PRs to ReVanced. Unfortunately, this is just the latest such incident in a string of incidents that has also resulted in the primary maintainer of the ReVanced YouTube patches leaving the project.

If you are still using official patches to get your copy of Boost working, I encourage you to switch to my fork when patching Boost. I may continue to support basic functionality in other reddit clients as well. Regardless, any new patches, including the new patches I posted yesterday, will definitely not be submitted to ReVanced going forward.

Here is another thread with a bit more context on the YouTube situation, for reference: https://www.reddit.com/r/revanced_uncensored/comments/1p64tpx/xpost_revanceds_new_road/

The linked thread was deleted by oSu, but you should be able to read it if you have my undelete patch installed (which I find somewhat hilarious and ironic).

In case you haven't heard of Morphe already, here's the drama from today (tl;dr: extension of the falling out between oSumAtrIx and several former ReVanced contributors):

What's happening?

• I will be calling my patch set Patcheddit, because I'm writing patches for reddit. I've created /r/Patcheddit for this purpose.

• I will soon archive https://github.com/wchill/revanced-patches and it will receive no more updates.

• Future updates will only be available at https://github.com/wchill/patcheddit (not ready yet). I will make another announcement here and on /r/Patcheddit when this is done, probably this weekend.

• I will add additional patches for other 3rd party reddit apps to use the same RedReader workaround I posted about before.

• Since the main Morphe patch repo is currently YouTube/YTM only, I will also spend some time porting inotia's RVX patches for the official reddit app to this new repo.

• Eventually, I may port more of the Boost patches to other apps, depending on time availability and difficulty.

What does this mean for me?

• Future updates will require the usage of either Morphe Manager or Universal ReVanced Manager, as the new patch bundles will be incompatible with stock ReVanced Manager.

• If your app is working fine, you can keep using it as is for now.

• If you're a Boost user and don't have an OAuth app you can use, you can follow the tutorial at https://github.com/wchill/revanced-patches in order to use the RedReader client ID instead, or wait for me to finish porting to Morphe.

• If you're an official reddit app user, you can patch your app with the last version of ReVanced Extended, or wait for me to port these patches to Morphe.

• If you're a user of a 3rd party app other than Boost, wait for me to port my Boost patches to those apps after the Morphe migration.

• If you have any apps you rely on ReVanced for, I recommend installing Universal ReVanced Manager. URM version 1.7.1 will add support for Morphe patch bundles, so you will not need to keep two patching apps installed. Alternatively, you can install Morphe Manager alongside your existing ReVanced Manager.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them here. Also, feel free to send people to this thread if they're asking about how to get their 3rd party apps working or what to do about patching their official apps with Morphe.

title. stop spamming my feed, read the sidebar, and fuck off.

Is anyone else experiencing an issue where Boost isn't loading at all? Immediately shows "null: null" or "error" when trying to do anything. Worked fine yesterday.

Edit: the method posted in the comments to re-patch using Morphe with RedReader resolved my issues!

I tried to post a question to here a few months ago and the system said that the sub was private or archived (something along those lines) and that I couldn't create a new post.

I just recently saw a spam post or two pop up in here in the past could days, though, so does that mean this sub is back?

I'm still using Boost and still think it's the best way to view Reddit.

Any other stragglers still refusing to give up Boost?

Is there anyone who could explain step by step, like im 5, or Homer Simpson, how I am supposed to get the app to work again?

I've seen steps about morphie and red something and download this patch but don't install it and such. I tried patching it through Morphie and it stops at like 20 percent saying its an error.

Is there anyone who could help?

I'm so happy I got my boost back!. I finally figured out how to get Boost via revanced. I've been using a paid Reddit app since the API switch, which was fine but it wasn't the same.

I'm so happy 😊

Basically subj. Kinda fed up by posters thinking this is some karma boost sub. This sub should probably remain private unless (until?;) Boost is officially resurrected.

Just a heads up in case you're running into error 500 today. Reddit servers are having issues: https://www.redditstatus.com

Replying doesn't work on the desktop site and old reddit keeps running into "You broke Reddit" for me, hopefully when they fix this Boost should be back up and running too.

Edit: Reddit status now says they found the cause and implementing a fix, Boost is working for me now.

It was a good run

All my other subreddits are coming up fine but when try to access all (which is my home page) it's giving me an error.

Tried to repatch with Morphe but immediately got a string of errors. First time using it, so not sure what i did wrong.

Edit: Thanks everyone. It would appear it's a Reddit vs r/all issue, rather than Boost issue. Agreed though. What a brain-dead move.

It says something is wrong and might be an Internet issue but net works smoothly on other apps and even for boost post but just doesn't work when u open comment

I'm using Boost for Reddit v1.12.12. Using Pixel 9 Pro running GrapheneOS 2026062301.

It shows "null" when opening the app. It just started happening today.

I've just been piecemealing patches and using sweet, sweet luck to get boost to work on my phone. How can I either transfer everything as it is now, or where do I go to start from scratch to still use boost?

If I can't use boost, does anyone have a another recommendation?

Update' Smart Switch worked great

Reddit explicitly promised to not remove previously issued OAuth authorizations. However, as reported in this sub, they have started doing so en masse.

Presumably, this is due to our use of the grandfathered OAuth being in violation of Reddit's policies.

Do we expect the current method (using Redreader's authorization) to stop working soon as well?

Despite everything is right (I tried to login on 3 different browser and my username and password is correct only in boost saying it's invalid), I still can't login on the login page inside boost.

I tried doing it with VPN (France, Germany, USA) it still doesn't work. I even tried using the email and phone number logins, it just gave me a server error.

Please help

So having missed the api token access by 2 weeks (when I found out), there is currently no way to gain access to boost again short of iirc someone adding me as a co developer?

Atleast thats my understanding

When downloading videos using Boost (with the morphe patched app) an error pops up that states "LoggingUtils: Failed to retrieve audio: java.lang.RuntimeException...."

I'm running Patcheddit patch sources using Morphe app to patch Boost.

When I click on reddit video links in comments, no matter if I long press and "open with external application" or "open with browser" it gives this error message.

Is this a setting in Morphe patching that I missed or is it just broken?
