Lineage or Sailfish? (lemmy.world)

Hey, guys. I have a spare Sony 10 IV, which supports Sailfish OS and Lineage OS. I would like to install one of them and have the experience of getting away from Google. My criteria would be how usable (how stable and how much I can use it for the usual daily tasks) and how easy would be to install it. Thanks for your help!

I can try it. Which banking app do you use? DM me your username and password.

Lineage runs mine just fine, though it does require the google services addon

[–] luciferofastora@feddit.org 2 points 1 week ago

Mine is a large German bank; I'd rather not say which one specifically.
