    Like the banking app just refuses to be usable or shit like this. I wouldn't mind e.g. buying another Threema licence or stuff like this, but it just have to work... Not sure this is that easily doable with a degooglefied device

        @igwigg@sk.igwigg.space yes, thats exaclt the reason I am reluctant...

        I installed Linage OS on an old tablet years ago, but that wasn't my daily drive. Thinks that won't work on there are just not important.

        But to get an e/OS/ phone just to try it out is a risk (even thought some users here will tell me that I don't need all those apps) and getting a burner device just to try out is way to expensive...

          @Erpel threeema should work just fine without google. Now banking apps can be tricky for sure. I dunno if they require google components a 100% (I could think of a reason myself) I just know most will refuse to run on rooted-devices

          What certainly won't work is push notifs for many apps though
