feat(YouTube - Spoof client): Re-add TestSuite as a spoofing option #3393

Open theblackhole opened 2 months ago

theblackhole commented 2 months ago

Feature description

For the YouTube Client Spoof patch, re-add Android TestSuite as a spoofing option in addition to current options (Android VR and iOS)

Motivation

I've been using a branded account as my primary account for years and there are some significant issues with the current spoofing choices offered (also described in #3208):

Previous versions with Android TestSuite (before #3230) worked fine for me. If there were limitations, I didn't notice them (for my daily use anyway, it's probably different for other people)

Acknowledgements

I am also experiencing this issue and would like to add a couple of extra reasons to implement it:

  1. My non-brand youtube account is attached to my irl name, and as such i have never used it from privacy concerns. I feel like being forced to use it if i want to have a smooth experience on Youtube is a privacy risk which makes me feel unsafe.

  2. All my history and subscriptions are tied to my brand account, and migrating them across is very inconvenient.

  3. I am a hobbyist youtube creator and as such I need to be primarily focused on my brand account. Switching back and forth is not a good solution.

Please consider these additional reasons when looking into this feature request.

This issue will be obsolete when https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-patches/pull/3582 is merged, as all known bugs are fixed by that PR
