@ocean my oldest was a google nexus 5 - worked great. Latest is a fairphone 5 - haven't gotten lineageOS working with the "latest edition" of magisk. LineageOS has a long list of phones it works on. Pick any.
If anyone wants to win a bigger market they need to make a phone that can run ALL android apps.. I'm sure there's legal threats holding lineageOS from doing so though :(

@ocean and yes - its really absurd that my bank apps "just work" - but netflix (I get that with DRM crap requirements) and then McD has so high security requirements. really annoying MicroG can't implement this - afaik because of google's proprietary "security level" whatever check.. but managed to "fix" enough for everything but mcd last time.. haven't solved it on latest LineageOS unfortunately :(
Annoying Chromecast is proprietary, really hope @EUCommission would look into monopoly of it

@ocean I've been using LineageOS for 7+ years. Always preferred full open source. got 99% working (all except that mcd app :)
I'd be able to move many to an open source app - but only those of us who can live with stuff like this - is going to use it, if it can't support it. We really should fix these silly things, so we can run open source on our phones too - instead of our laptops only.

@ocean LOL. we almost never eat there - but I've just noticed its the one app that has the highest security requirements (and my kids ask if I have an offer from mcd they can use when we pass it :) - so its the only app I never made run on LineageOS (netflix etc. I got working fine). So its a good test.

@KarnaSubarna it needs to be able to run Netflix, banking apps and McD app (has very high security requirements - hard to get working on LineageOS f.ex.
If it solves those - I think it could be hugely popular - as the first fully useable phone, for those wanting to regain control over their phone and data.

@cyberwolfie
Sensibly munich switched back to open source in 2020 :)
