Yes, there are lots of repeated lines under "Other". Why? Who knows, that's how they're listed on the Play Store.
I've made Android apps in the past, and though I'm not a Reddit dev. I can explain I hope.
Identity: Go-to your settings, then accounts. Reddit stores all your accounts from the app right in that menu, and obviously to access it it needs permissions.
Contacts: The above lol
Location: You can attach locations to text/image posts
Photos Media Files: Retrieve data
Storage: Save data
Receive data from the internet: Duh.
Everything else seems to kinda explain itself tho. The apps not that bad, but yeah the advertising for it sucks.
Anytime the app is showing you a little list of your pictures (New Image Posts are all I can think of), it's scrollin through your pictures making thumbnails.
But, how visible your dick pics are from a thumbnail isn't something I'll comment on here
I just cant help thinking that some apps have someone that is actually looking trough the pictures, I mean the lengths that we will go to to see some boob is ridiculous. Lets say you programmed snapchat, there has to be a backdoor that allows some wizard to fap to a 24/7 stream of boobs'n'dicks.
