So does microG work good enough to run banking apps? That's really the big question for most I think.

    Not really cause you need to patch those apps to support microg instead afaik, at least you do with YouTube, and banking apps probably have ways to check if they've been meddled with.

    To expand on that if you're curious, there are afaik 2 types of attestation to verify it's a safe device, device attestation (which checks for a locked bootloader and some specific fingerprints), this is safe to fake for custom roms. The other one is the one i mentioned done through the software side with Google play services and such. That's impossible to fake currently (afaik, been a minute since I could install a custom rom).
