Well, flawed or not, it's what we need to use if our apps are dependant on it. I guess I'm lucky that my bank doesn't push their App, and even recommends Firefox alongside the other Browsers for Online Banking.
As I said, I don’t do banking on my phone, but if I needed to use a banking app and it was unsupported on GrapheneOS I would honestly consider switching to another bank. The system of banking is flawed as well, that’s why I try to use Monero as much as possible.
Most banks are just massive dicks. Don't you love it when your consultant tells you they have your best interest at heart
When they do this, I just laugh at them and tell them them to stop pretending. Is this rude? Maybe. Is it the truth? Definitely.
Edit: It's not just banks. Insurance companies and publicly traded corporation in general are just there to screw you over. I'm not a socialist or anything like that but I gotta say: The capitalist system is flawed. (Every system is flawed, a perfect system doesn't exist but it's pretty bad with capitalism)
