Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of 'non-google' approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that's true or not..

Right? Have to pay google for the privilege

Your options are:

Apple phone

Bloated android phone like Samsung etc.

Chinese android phone (xiami etc)

Google phone with Android

Google phone with graphene. This still looks like the best of those options.

Or no phone? I guess people are hardcore enough that will be the option.

Edit: I stand corrected.

Fairphone? Swiftphone? eOS? Linuxphone? PostmarketOS etc?

Is swiftphone its own thing or did you mean shiftphone? I kinda want the shiftphone 8 myself even if they only ship to neighboring countries of mine.

Ah sorry, you're right. I meant shiftphone.

There's always package forwarding. I'm about to find out how bad an idea that is.
