There's also https://nikgapps.com/ I hate proprietary software enough already, I don't know if using someone's highly riced modded things is better | 15:13:10 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | It claims to use OpenGapps as inspiration, but it doesn't really clearly specify how it is different | 15:13:39 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I'm only 25, but I'm too old for Android | 15:13:53 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I need to go to a help the aged website to figure out what's new | 15:14:22 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * I need to go to a "help the aged" website to figure out what's new | 15:14:25 |
| kranzes | What Atemu posted is also someelses gapps | 15:14:45 |
| kranzes | there are a couple of implementations | 15:14:55 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Btw, I got Paul to get a OnePlus 6 for Mobile NixOS. He booted up the Android it came with, couldn't figrue it out and said "I'm too old for this" and had to go to this webpage for advice https://mcmw.abilitynet.org.uk/how-to-change-the-way-you-navigate-your-device-in-android-11 | 15:15:23 |
| kranzes | Oh right, you need nikGapps | 15:15:36 |
| kranzes | opengapps is outdated | 15:15:40 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Well that's just lovely isn't it lol | 15:15:50 |
| kranzes | only supports up-to android 11 and even then it's considered experimental | 15:15:52 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | OpenGapps stays, outdated, with the better name. Then someone's custom name takes over as a fork and now it's not obvious that NikGapps isn't just some kid's experiment. | 15:16:18 |
| kranzes | All of android custom rom stuff is random kid | 15:16:51 |
| kranzes | it's all 14 year old indian kids on xda devs | 15:17:00 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I guess so. It's a shame that Banking companies force you to use all this proprietary software. | 15:17:14 |
| kranzes | Doesn't work with MicroG? | 15:17:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I need to see if Waydroid + Banking Apps + Mobile NixOS works | 15:17:48 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | In reply to @kranzes:matrix.org
Doesn't work with MicroG? Well maybe it does, but then how do you get the banking app? | 15:17:57 |
| kranzes | aurora store? | 15:18:08 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | You can't keep it up to date with Aurora Store because the implementation often gets banned by Google Play after X weeks, just like the NewPipe Youtube player | 15:18:25 |
| kranzes | I've been using aurora store for quite a while now, no issue | 15:18:50 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I'll definitely try it | 15:18:56 |
| kranzes | At what point does the banking app fail? | 15:19:06 |
| kranzes | just launching it? | 15:19:11 |
| kranzes | logging in? | 15:19:13 |
| kranzes | I can maybe test | 15:19:18 |
| kranzes | There's also zygisk and other weird spoofing patches made by random chinese devs | 15:19:38 |
| kranzes | It's all a mess | 15:19:44 |
