    I hope one day there will be a good Google Wallet alternative. I’ve got a Pixel phone with GrapheneOS, and Google Wallet does not work because Google doesn’t trust it. It would be great to get something in it’s place.

        Apparently a few coop banks somewhere are adopting/have adopted taler, so hopefully it takes off.

        Knowing the speed of free software alternatives it will either be ready really soon or in 3 decades it will be forgotten

      I really hope this happens. NFC payments are the only thing that keeps me from switching to GrapheneOS. Seeing how the situation with big tech unfolds, it’s not impossible that I will decide to give up this convenience though.

        This. I go cycling a lot and sometimes I want a drink or a snack on the way and the convenience of taking only my phone and still being able to pay for things is unbeatable. I even use my banks own payment app, but it doesn’t support Graphene either, so unless I wanna just go back to keeping 10€ in my case and giving any coin change as tip I’m stuck on my stock Pixel.
