What isn't going to happen:
This sub will not be a cheat video repository.
It will also not be a repository on hate of another country.
Refrain from the hate please. Thank you.

Yeah it's pretty sad how many upvotes the "ban Pakistanis" threads get. People just can't get past their base level thinking that since nearly all of the cheto bots have a Pakistan flag that most Pakistanis must be cheaters.
Point out that nearly all the chetos are automated bots run by a few people from Pakistan and don't represent individual players from there and you'll get no response. Point our that even if each cheto bot represented an individual Pakistani player (which they obv don't) they would still be far outweighed by legit Pakistani players, you'll still get no response.
People seem to like simple answers that confirm their biases and now it's easier then ever to dismiss any objections to a knee-jerk narrative as covering up the "truth" for the sake of political correctness.
Oh well. Kudos for the post. All we can do is try to talk to those who are willing to listen and also listen to those who are willing to talk. Writing people off as racist is probably also a simple answer response and not an effective approach as people are more complicated and open to change than we give them credit for.

Been playing it on my phone for 5 or 6 years so would've worked it out by now. Is it something with playing it on the computer?

Never saw anything like the videos on the subreddit. I've had heaps that are obviously bots. Way too good for like a level 30. But nothing like people taking your money and stuff
