Those of you who install non-google-play apps (aka: sideloading), what's your gameplan for the upcoming Google restrictions on Sideloading?
Edit: Replaced "Restrictions" in place of the word "Ban"

Have two phones: one rooted with a custom ROM and the other one for banking. 🤷♂️
If banking apps don't work, can you use the website?
Like for example if "Bank of whatever" app doesn't work, wouldn't bank-of-whatever.com still work?
One of the main draws of mobile apps is mobile deposits. So that might be a reason to keep around a regular phone for just that purpose.
That makes sense, I hadn't considered that since my jobs are always on direct deposit.
I can see how the mobile deposit could be necessary for some people and potentially their business.
Thanks for your perspective!
I've thought of what I would do, and if I left Android because of this I think I'd get a Linux phone and just use my iPad for bank apps.
Since I stopped using gmail I don't really find myself needing Google account related services anymore or their apps. My main apps are all from F-Droid now and backing up with sync thing.
