Yes, mostly using Magisk and addon, I used it for a couple of years on a rooted device, to fool banking app and netflix and whatnot, but it's a cat and mouse game... android update something, next time you want to tap to pay, it does not work, you have to go on XDA and search for the right addon/trick to fool it again, and 2 weeks later, same thing... after doing it for months/years, it's boring and annoying...
Keep a "secure" phone with locked bootloader for banking/tap to pay etc, and use others phones to tinker with, install ROM, etc.
Same my friend, same... I'm on FB since 2008 or so as all my families and friends. For years now everyone gave up on it (I mean nobody is posting their vacation or food plate anymore) and the feed is mainly sponsored ads and far right stuff (In Canada there is no official news, only alternatives news).
But everyone are still using Messenger to talk, we have groups etc, and damn Marketplace is the thing here in Montreal, everyone is using it and it's incredible to buy/sell, you need it or you will never buy/sell anything used.
I'm in the same boat, I want to ditch Meta, but Messenger/Marketplace has no alternatives.
Unfortunately, also, all the good old forums died off and people are using FB groups now, but it's not as good
Beautiful đ
