Good afternoon, y’all!

I have decided to take the plunge and switch over to Graphene OS. Is there anything I need to know before I use the web installer? I’m a bit bummed about having to set up all my apps again, but I’m exporting all my settings, thanks FOSS apps! to help with the transition. Most of my data is fully backed up through Nextcloud, so I’ll be able to just jump straight in with my photos and data.

So yeah, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated before I go through with it tonight. Thanks, y’all and again, I love being a part of the Lemmy community.

    It does. You just need to find one.

    In my part of the world (UK) I use Curve for contactless payments using GrapheneOS.

      I tried to join Curve. For whatever reason they couldn’t verify my ID from the photo I sent, and that was that. No opportunity to redo, and they never replied to my support request email.

        Yep. Their support is abysmal. I had the same issue - twice! Keep at it. I found poking them on Xitter got some traction.

        Once I got verified, it’s worked flawlessly.

        They’ve now been acquired by Lloyds Banking Group so, hopefully, things on that front will slowly improve.

          Oh.

          My bank is Lloyds, and their app not working on Graphene is a huge part of why I tried to apply for a Curve account.

          Bugger.

        Correct. In the US there is no entity that is supporting it. Technically any of our banks could create an app that supports it, but they’re lazy and cheap.
