I’ve never had an issue with the three banking apps I tried on LineageOS, and I didn’t even know there was a McDonald’s app or pokemon games.
If this list for /e/os roughly applies to LineageOS (with microG), I wouldn’t call it “only for secondary devices”, more “won’t work for some people”
Did I miss something? AFAIK google is requiring devs to ID, not to use SafetyNet or whatever the “only-runs-on-certified-phones” thing is called
If you already have the correct version of the flatpak installed, you can try flatpak build-bundle.
flatpak build-bundle LOCATION FILENAME NAME where
LOCATION is the path of the repo on disk. Run flatpak info -l org.kde.arianna, and copy the part before /appFILENAME is the output file name, preferably .flatpak. Eg: arianna.flatpakNAME is the name of the app, here org.kde.ariannaThe generated file can be installed with a double-click, or with flatpak install <file>
This is the equivalent of an Android .apk. It contains the app but depends on a runtime. If you want to install it in a few years, odds are the runtime will no longer be available. You can backup the runtime the same way with the --runtime option.
flatpak build-bundle --runtime LOCATION FILENAME NAME where
LOCATION same as earlierFILENAME eg arianna-runtime.flatpakNAME is the name of the runtime, which you can get with flatpak info --show-runtime org.kde.ariannaThis takes a while, for some reason. Maybe it’s compressing stuff?
The runtime is installed the same way as the app: double click or flatpak install.
Note: I only did this once, and not specifically on Arianna. Hope it works.

This fails to convey how painfully tedious the communication is between the foundation and the community. At this point it feels like the tension between high executives and an union, with the executives having the deep conviction that they are good and that the union will magically recognize it, if only they could perpetually delay every one of their demands.
