Why do some apps need to be installed using root, and others do not? (lemmy.world)

Basically, the title. I've used revanced to patch YouTube and Reddit's app. YouTube only seems to work if I install as root. Reddit's app only seems to work if I don't use root. Wondering why that is.

Google creators of the still too open android os.

I'm not finding anything.

Right. Google primary developers of the still too open android os.

This is nonsense. What are you trying to say?

Maybe I am wrong but they are developing the AOSP primarily right? I read a few things in the past that they are dropping lots of standard apps which custom ROMs have to implement themselves.

This is the event I remembered but I think there were some more: https://www.androidauthority.com/google-kill-android-aosp-dialer-messages-app-3334980/
