    I hope one day we’ll find a way to get banking apps working through Waydroid or something else. And by we, I mean people who are way more techy than me😅

    I feel like it’s the only thing which would prevent a lot of people from using Linux every day on their phones.

      Call your bank and ask them how to access your account without an Apple or Android phone.
      Claim you need it for accessibility reasons.
      Forcing you to use the product of one out of 2 tech corporations just to survive (for which you need a bank account) is ridiculous.

        I know and I agree.

        Well the other solution for some banks is to send you a card reader. My ecological side had to choose between future e-waste and evil corporations.

      Banking apps and having the card on the phone, those two are the only things keeping me from using a private OS

        My banking app threw a fit because I had KDEConnect on my phone installed via FDroid. Installing an APK signed by Google Play fixed the issue, but still
