    And revanced takes some steps, more than just “install this package, done”.

    It depends. Personally I patch it and then share the patched apk with friends and family, so for them it’s literally just “install this package, done” without compromising security.

      I thought about doing this, but didn’t want to essentially be their maintainer. I do that enough at work lol

        Tbh I share an apk twice a year on a shared Whatsapp group and that’s all the “maintaining” I do, so I don’t care that much. I’ve had worse

          That’s fair. It’s more of when google breaks YouTube for the custom apps, that people start to get all pissy lol

          not gonna lie, a little envious that your family knows how to install from apk, that would be my first bottleneck. They would hit the first scare screen and raise the white flag

      just make sure you either install it for them or let them know to only install this app not any app. getting them in the habit of installing any apk from email/text is bad news bears
