After reading up on it on the DivestOS page, it mostly seems to work, with the exception of SafetyNet

But then again, the whole point of the DivestOS project is to remove as much Google and other proprietary code as possible.
So if someone wants to use DivestOS specifically, they likely don’t use any apps that need microg.

Can confirm that a lot of good banking apps and other secure verification app works on graphene without Google. Some shittier banking apps still need the sandboxed Google play.
Well, flawed or not, it’s what we need to use if our apps are dependant on it. I guess I’m lucky that my bank doesn’t push their App, and even recommends Firefox alongside the other Browsers for Online Banking.
