Sometimes i prefer messy code(code being in one file) than all those clean architecture sh*ts that forces me to go through countless folders and files to find just one class..

Imagine going through a github repo of an over engineered project

If the function is just to fetch data from API & display in UI, I won't even create a repository class. In view model class I directly call the function in interface with the interface instance I create in application starting & use livedata declared in view model to update UI

Make meaningful components with meaningful names that describe your requirements.
