One of the biggest issues with custom ROMs is that you typically can't run banking apps. But this initiative could change things.

A new European initiative dubbed UnifiedAttestation aims to build a free and open-source alternative to Google’s Play Integrity checks. The initiative is backed by smartphone maker Volla, while other partners include /e/OS maker Murena and the team behind iodé OS. The feature will be distributed under an Apache 2.0 license.

    All the big banks I use don’t do anything ither than SMS, they’re lazy AF.

    That’s truly mind-blowing, and fraud must be rampant! I have accounts in several different banks in several different countries, both inside and outside of the EU, and I have never ever encountered a bank that would rely on SMS “authentication” for security, not even in the distant past when online banking was new.
