How can i debloat android reddit and youtube app ? The vanilla apps are constantly making bloat connections. (Atleast 8k-10k on adguard app per day).

    For Reddit: If you really want to participate, use a third-party app like Infinity but with your own API key. That’s easy to setup, you just have to follow this tutorial.

    If you don’t want to participate and just want to see Reddit posts without using the app or the website, use Redlib (the link I shared uses redlib btw)

    For YouTube: Either replace the app with another front-end like Newpipe or only use YouTube in a browser (which would still not be private but it’s slightly better than using an app). You can also use Revanced but I don’t know much about that one.
