Nostr Web Client

I'd zap you some sats but you're not set up yet 😉

I completely agree, actually. I should've used another word than "polished". As far as look and feel, GrapheneOS is impressive. It's my first time using Android so I would guess my comparison on UX is to iOS and all its very slick (and invasive) setup experience and app store. I had to go through the process of figuring out the Android equivalent to all my apps, and as much as possible to go open source. This has made things a little clunkier and less functional (e.g. no NFC wallet) and many banking apps don't work I'm told, but after putting in a little extra work I am enjoying a similar level of functionality to what I used to have on an iPhone without any of the privacy compromises. I would recommend it to anyone.

Happy Easter to you!

Ahh I understand better now, alls well that ends well.

Most banking apps will work, they just require sandboxed Play Services to be present in the main.

There is a resource at https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compatibility-with-grapheneos/

However would advise also checking/searching the issue tracker too for more updates that may not be listed at present. https://github.com/PrivSec-dev/banking-apps-compat-report/issues

NFC Pay is available but as you say not GPay, a lot of French banking apps for example implement their own version, as well as European users of Curve where GPay isn't available have access to Curve Pay. Stocard used to also implement it via their own top up virtual card but they deprecated the feature.

GPay works every now and then but Google soon does something to the back end that breaks it again.

Regards zaps yeah unfortunately the project doesn't have lightning and I am not here to profit from the dev teams work. There are crypto donation methods available at grapheneos.org/donate though. Lightning is on the roadmap but having just incorporated as a non profit until donation channels have all migrated it won't be set up for the moment.

Glad we got to connect though.

I did donate to GrapheneOS after installing! I should probably donate after each update, too.

Good to know about the wallet. And if you set up for zaps, no one will assume you're here to profit, just to participate in this great new world of Nostr and all the capacities it enables!!
