One of the things I used violentmonkey for was to redirect any reddit url to the old reddit.

Example

// ==UserScript==
// @name        Old reddit redirect
// @namespace   Violentmonkey Scripts
// @match       https://www.reddit.com/*
// @grant       none
// @version     1.0
// @author      -
// @description 10/8/2022, 8:20:18 PM
// ==/UserScript==

var str = window.location.href;
window.location.replace(str.replace("www.reddit.com", "old.reddit.com"));

What ever happened to initiatives such as project Treble? Do you guys think updates have gotten better on Android?

I remember when I used to be excited about Android OS updates and kept watching videos about new features (that I was not gonna get anytime soon because I was stuck in an old version of Android)... It's been years since I've been excited about an Android update.

Little side note rant:
My biggest annoyance with Android is the share menu. I hate how it's different for different apps (Firefox is vastly different from other apps for instance). I can notice at least 3 different sharing menus with the apps I frequently use. Makes it hard to build muscle memory.... And I cannot pin the apps I actually use frequently for sharing stuff. Also the direct share thing never worked for me. I think it's only for sharing via SMS or Email neither of which I use for sharing content, so it ended up being just a waste of space for me.

Hope they fix the share menu one day..... But then I'd have to wait to change my phone to get the updates.

Do you guys remember Ndiswrapper? For when you had to use Windows drivers for your wireless card... Wonder if it's still used.
