And that’s why I’m installing /e/OS in my Fairphone 6, and shifting to Linux based phones.
Even now Google is removing everything that is a choice to avoid their massive surveillance machine, apps started complaining about removal of UnifiedPush:
The inevitable end is when they bake the commercials into the stream, take away the skip buttons and ban accounts for timeskipping over commercials through other detectable means.
The inevitable counter is we screencap youtubers, feed it through comskip, and produce commercial-free content and torrent it.
Yeah, I was very happy that my banks app worked. Also, I found if I keep microg connected to the app lounge, then my bank app would not work. So I keep it set to anonymous connection.
Yes lawnchair is a must have with e/os.
I like what /e/os is pushing for but im puzzled on why they did this horrendous launcher and the way they change stock android look.
I have a Jolla C2 with SailfishOS, it has Android app support based on AlienDalvik, and my banking app runs just fine there. I can use Nextcloud, etc. For my needs it runs great.
Been using them for a hot minute, been rocking one flavor of the Linux kernel on my phone since the release of the Motorola Droid back in like 2009-2010.

Fuck Google.
That’s actually a known bug in Fennec, nothing to do with Google
Don’t forget their ongoing war on ad blocking. I’ll miss NewPipe so much.
NewPipe, PipePipe, Grayjay, brave mobile
One of them generally works.
The latest NewPipe is working for me right now. It only ever dies for a few days.
It’s working, yeah, but it’s

Pipepipe works fine
I’ve been using NewPipe without problems. Is it supposed to have gone away?
future tense, they even posted about it, jfc
Mine insists I’m a bot and requests I sign in.
Other times it works occasionally.
Like rolling dice.
Try some methods to change your IP.
You can try Futo’s Grayjay. Always updating its YT plugin when Google breaks it.
FF6 with eOS is awesome! For the first time in a very long time, I feel like I actually own the device! Very liberating.
Do you use any banking apps?
Yeah, I was very happy that my banks app worked. Also, I found if I keep microg connected to the app lounge, then my bank app would not work. So I keep it set to anonymous connection.
All mine work, so far, in Graphene, except Google wallet and i don’t need Google to see what I purchase anyway.
Mine refuse to run in GrapheneOS. Everything runs except my banks’ apps and eBay. It’s a slight inconvenience but the tradeoff has been worth it.
Edit: Thanks to [email protected] I got my bank’s app working under GrapheneOS.
Have you tried the workarounds like disabling some exploit protections for the app? It can be finicky but sometimes it’ll make it usable
No, thanks for the tip. I’ll try that.
Edit: It worked! Disabling exploit protections got my bank’s app working. Thanks again.
Sweeet I’m glad it helped!
Welcome friend! I’ve been having a great time with e/os on my FP6.
I recommend the lawnchair launcher if you don’t like the stock one.
Yes lawnchair is a must have with e/os. I like what /e/os is pushing for but im puzzled on why they did this horrendous launcher and the way they change stock android look.
Do
noevil.I’m on an FP6 with iodéOS, very smooth so far, and apparently security is better than with /e/OS.
I had to manually flash it though.
lol good luck with that LOL
Some people value freedom more than convenience
It sadly doesn’t change the fact that those phones barely exists and the few that does are either incredibly old or only very partially supported.
And we may be fine with that
