Iโ€™ve been sifting through my digital footprint for a while now and Iโ€™m getting to my old accounts that Iโ€™ve mostly forgotten about. I thought it would be fun if we shared what we delete, you just might jog someone elseโ€™s memory of an account they still have floating around.

How are you finding e/os? I've been looking at it for a while now but haven't made the jump yet. Specifically support for things like banking apps and WhatsApp as I can't get rid of those quite yet.

I really like it. Was impressed how good it works, as I only have a Community version, not an official build. Especially that they show you how many trackers the apps have, never thought there would be so many.

Never had any major issues since using it nearly a year.

Only thing I do not like so much is their App Lounge, as updates there come a bit later, so mostly I use Aurora Store instead.

Depends where you from, for me all banking apps work. Here is a list of working banking apps: https://community.e.foundation/t/list-banking-apps-on-e-os/33091

What is not working is in App purchases, as I do not use a Google Account.

Hope this helps a bit, if you have more questions you send me a message.
