This is why I Graphene, honestly speaking.
Though... Googled AI Fever Dream (don't ask why my producer, Neigsendoig, calls it that) is probably going to do the same, though stores like Obtanium, Zapstore, F-Droid, etc. won't be easily affected by that (not if Play Integrity DRM has anything to say about it).
I'm also betting on Graphene. Been able to get by with a profile without Play Services, thankfully my bank doesn't require it, but if they ever do (or the new integrity bullshit), I'm immediately switching banks to one that doesn't.
That's the only app I need on my phone, anything else I can get without if they require it.
If that's a requirement, I wouldn't go for another central bank, but a community credit union instead. Heck, even no bank account nor community credit union account would be better.
That's from Derick Broze, actually.
