I did a fair amount of research before the switch to find alternatives to Google services, some I’ve replaced, others I felt were too much of a hassle for my phone usage.

I’ve kept my original pixel stock, the hardest part about switching this one over was plugging it in and following the instructions.

I’m hoping to get rid of my stock OS pixel soon, it would appear my bank hasn’t blocked it’s app on Graphene, unlike Uber.

For the rest I’ll either buy a cheap af shitbox to use purely for banking and Uber (if it comes to that).

If you’ve any other questions I’m happy to help find then answers with you, feel free to DM me.

Thanks for bringing this up, first I’ve heard of it. Not present on my GrapheneOS pixel, present on stock.

I suppose I should encourage pixel owners to switch from stock to graphene, I know which decide I rather spend time using. GrapheneOS one of course.

I still can’t decide if it’s end-stage capitalism or beggining-stage cyberpunk, or both.
