I'm having a hard time finding the actual lucky patcher. Was it at .com or .info or something else? Please help
This should be the real one: https://www.luckypatchers.com/
Beware fake download ads though (I've never seen any of those, but people without uBlock might)
Accessing that from my phone shows the actual site content for about 3 seconds and then an endless array of "popup and notification blocked messages" as well as the usual combination of "oh noes your PC has three dangerous viruses click here to resolve" type redirects.
Is this just a cunning way to weed out the normies or can I expect the same kind of thing from their allegedly-excellent app? Because they're not leaving a good impression right now.
Yeah, that IS the real one, it seems. It asks for random package name, and it immediately installed as an LSPosed module.
The app is adfree and not spammy. Can't talk about the Website though, I haven't browsed the internet without good content blockers for the last decade
Chrome mobile put up a pretty good fight. I have been meaning to put Firefox + ublock on my phone, maybe I'll stop being slack and finally do it today.
