The idea was attempting to switch to PostmarketOS, so if I ever needed to use a banking app I could do it through this phone via a VNC client. You can't.
Banking apps black the login screen. Even if that is ok for 99.9% of users, I know what I'm doing and I do not absolutely have the fucking choice to disable that. The thing I found out is that every time I come up with something that should be doable, either Android or the fucking app or something else prevents me from moving away.
My biggest drag is banking because almost everything else I can leave it out. And I believe I don't have a choice.
Not just because of the look and feel but everything was just odd and in the wrong places compared to the store app. I should probably try this from a mobile browser but the last time I used Firefox in Postmarket OS it behaved like a desktop browser (in fact I think I read somewhere that it is indeed a regular Firefox resized to be used in PostmarketOS) so I'm assuming that the experience is going to be really bad.
I ran this with a custom fork to expose the device screen as a VNC server for years, no problems
Which added vnc support directly onto scrcpy, so I could leave a tablet plugged in to my headless server and access the tablet remotely via VNC
The alternative was to use X11vnc but it was janky and had some issues, plus higher cpu usage
