Custom ROMs have had just about enough of being Android's second-class citizens (www.androidauthority.com)

TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

The only reason I stopped using grapheneOS was because Google contactless payment didn't work.
Loved everything else about graphene tho

I've never used contactless on my phone, I already had a contactless debit card. Why are you, and others, using their phones to pay?

I can create a virtual card before every trip, use it via my phone and then cancel it after the trip, never worrying if my card got skimmed anywhere for one.

when you pay using the virtual wallet it automatically makes a mock id to the POS ... at least in my country it does

[–] nevemsenki@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Ehhh I'm not sure how I got skimmed. Better safe than sorry now, a deleted card is pretty foolproof

For some fucking reason there is zero option for this type of secure virtual card in my country. And I hate it. A friend got skimmed for over $1200 a couple months ago.
