I use LineageOS on all my devices (it's actually my main criteria when buying a phone) to mainly install apps from F-Droid without relying on the Google Play Store.

It has the same familiar look and feel on all devices and by experience is way snappier than the original ROM.

are you able to do any banking your phone?

(Lineage user here) I've had no trouble with Schwab, USAA, Discover, Amex, Mercury, PayPal, Venmo, or Stripe.

Phone is rooted with Magisk Hide and MicroG for spoofing google play services. Google Wallet does not work.

Most everything banking related works for me. 2 different credit unions, roboinvesting, paypal & paypal-alikes, credit card, car insurance, etc.

What does not work? An LG app to control an air conditioner.

Also I have to hide root from the roku app, which I use for the headphone because it works better than the headphone on the remote.

Super important stuff, no wonder they lock that down so much.

Ok I did skip one real thing for the sake of the funny. I can't do google tap to pay. That's about it.

This is all the same on a rooted standard rom as on Lineage.

Banking apps that do not require Google Play services, such as Bank of America, run just fine. Besides, you can always open a browser and use the web version. Losing banking apps and "tap to pay" is a small price to pay for avoiding having your data constantly siphoned by Google.
