My response would be "This must be illegal under GDPR"

The Manager does a reasonable job identifying patches available for a given version. The Issues page on GitHub has a lot of the bugs laid out. The Releases tab also has the update notes and the website has the patch notes (including required version).

On the Discord, #announcements has the major update info. #support acts quite a lot like the old Reddit page where people post issues they've run into with threaded replies. I agree having a ReVanced Lemmy page would be better than Discord but Discord Posts are shockingly usable imo. Chat and Off-Topic are obviously horrifically unsearchable chatrooms but also aren't the only resources on the server.

Honestly ReVanced is quite a bit more extensible than Vanced and works very reliably. Plus it's open source and you can download it off GitHub. The manager makes downloading patches about as easy as installing Vanced with the manager a few years ago. I'm sure someone will add a derrow patch to Revanced very soon

A web wrapper for the platform would be effectively no effort, especially for a company like Facebook. The difficulties would be losing out on tracking data and dealing with annoyances like adblock

There are plenty of Redditors who should switch but just haven't yet because 3rd party apps still kinda work. Then again I also agree Lemmy doesn't need the average big sub enjoying Redditor just yet.

The US may pay well in terms of gross pay, but the real wages (spending power) and social supports are significantly weaker than in most other developed countries.
