these negative comments are missing the point. Soon we may not be able to buy a phone that doesnt have an integrated intrusive ai that scans all you files. Android has one, ios has one. Whats the alternative? using lineage os or some other android rom? having to give up using banks apps and stuff that doesnt work in those roms? most people cant say no to having a phone, so lets ensure these phones arent so intrusive. lets legislate something about this...
Fwiw I can use my banking apps and anything else on GrapheneOS. It's been smooth sailing all the way.
Same here. I've been using Lineage since it was Cyanogenmod and I've never encountered banking or payment apps not working.
Oh shit lineage was cyanogen? I used that back in the day and loved it!
I’ll keep that in mind, thanks for the tidbit!
