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'm sure Google contactless payment works really well when the phone is dead. Or you drop your phone in a toilet or off a bridge. It's far easier to loose a phone than a card in a wallet in your pocket. If you lose your phone, you also lose access to all your money.

Not a fan of google pay, but I gotta say, I lost way more wallets than phones in my life it's about a 3 to 0 ratio (not counting purses I have lost before owning a phone.
