If this happens in Denmark/EU. I will say f**k convenience and go graphene, even though it will make my like more complicated
Way ahead of ya. Graphene is mostly working well. Some small issues like MitId not working due to Play Integrity but hopefully the UnifiedAttestation and focus on removing big tech dependence will solve that.

I could not agree more. Ironic to live in a society where we are required to either give our data to American mega corp 1 or American mega corp 2.

Go data sovereignty!

UnifiedAttestation looks promising. Here’s to hoping it’s not going to cause google to sue.
