@ocean LOL. we almost never eat there - but I’ve just noticed its the one app that has the highest security requirements (and my kids ask if I have an offer from mcd they can use when we pass it :) - so its the only app I never made run on LineageOS (netflix etc. I got working fine). So its a good test.
@ocean and yes - its really absurd that my bank apps “just work” - but netflix (I get that with DRM crap requirements) and then McD has so high security requirements. really annoying MicroG can’t implement this - afaik because of google’s proprietary “security level” whatever check… but managed to “fix” enough for everything but mcd last time… haven’t solved it on latest LineageOS unfortunately :(
Annoying Chromecast is proprietary, really hope @EUCommission would look into monopoly of it
@ocean I’ve been using LineageOS for 7+ years. Always preferred full open source. got 99% working (all except that mcd app :)
I’d be able to move many to an open source app - but only those of us who can live with stuff like this - is going to use it, if it can’t support it. We really should fix these silly things, so we can run open source on our phones too - instead of our laptops only.
Is running the McDonald’s app the “can it run doom” of FOSS Linux phones or are you just morbidly obese?

That’s quite funny that’s the case :) How’re you enjoying the OS? Do other fast food apps like BK work?

What phones have you been using it on? I’ve been interesting in a FOSS phone. I also don’t like that only my computers and servers can run Linux.
