Do banking apps work yet, because that forced me back to the stock install?

Only with MicroG. My workaround is to have a compromised computer at home that stays in my house, and then not have google on my phone at all. It's an added layer that is supposed to obfuscate details about the user, but I don't trust it. Also, you have a tracker that tries to call home, but you can disable it.

Banking worked once I added a Google account to microg. Which is not the best I know, but thats a compromise for now. With e/os and others you also habe to keep in mind that not all images allow you to lock your bootloader.
