How's it so far? Based on your experience, do you feel it gave you more benefits than a regular Pixel can give?

For someone who's only using apps from Fdroid and not signing in to Playstore, do you think it's worth the change?

P.S. I found GOS community in Lemmy but they seem to have disabled posting.

I've heard of Curve Pay before, but it just looks like any other tap-to-pay data harvesting app.

What's the appeal of that over Google Wallet (outside of not being Google)?

Not a huge amount, to be honest. The only reason I used it is because it enabled tap-to-pay in GrapheneOS. If you dont need that, there's no real reason to touch Curve at all.

I could be wrong but I think the appeal is that it allows NFC payments on Graphene OS
