Congrats! I made the switch a few months ago and haven't looked back. Highly recommend everyone switch to GrapheneOS, even if you still use Google Play Services or other Google apps (obviously trying to get away from those is always the right move but it isn't that simple for most people)

Now just wish Google Pay or some other contactless payment could work with it...

    Yeah I got a MagSafe case and started using a MagSafe wallet I had from when I was on iPhone so I usually just use my physical cards now. Would be nice to not have to worry about forgetting my wallet but oh well.

    I'm pretty much completely on FOSS now and really the only thing I miss, other than G Pay and compatibility with what other people use, is Google Maps, but Magic Earth is decent.

    It does. You just need to find one.

    In my part of the world (UK) I use Curve for contactless payments using GrapheneOS.

    I tried to join Curve. For whatever reason they couldn't verify my ID from the photo I sent, and that was that. No opportunity to redo, and they never replied to my support request email.

    Yep. Their support is abysmal. I had the same issue - twice! Keep at it. I found poking them on Xitter got some traction.

    Once I got verified, it's worked flawlessly.

    They've now been acquired by Lloyds Banking Group so, hopefully, things on that front will slowly improve.
