> I can use my bank on some linux distro,
Yes, I've been doing that since 2009 on Ubuntu and Debian but there are several caveats.
One of those banks has its own TOTP device and they won't replace it when the battery dies. It's almost 20 years old now. Then it's the fingerprint sensor on my phone.
The other banks authenticate accesses and many operations with either their app + fingerprint (all of them) or SMS (some of them). So basically I would still need a phone with a blessed OS. I could buy the cheapest one and store it in a drawer, but it's still a dependency on Google or Apple.
GrapheneOS requirement of Pixel devices is a dependency on Google too.

They are currently working with an OEM to release a non-Pixel GrapheneOS phone in the future.
I hope and pray that is a Samsung S Ultra device. The built-in stylus transforms the whole user experience, I would not go back to a device that I must swipe my dirty fingers across.
I’m just imagining myself pulling out the stylus on the train/plane, dropping it, and watching it roll away forever.
Millions of owners of Samsung devices somehow manage to not do that every day.
They thought of that! The cutaway of the stylus is a rounded rectangle, comfortable in the fingers but does not roll.
In any case, replacement stylii are very cheap online. Less than a screen protector.
The Palm Pilot experience. But that stylus was required for operation. Fortunately, just a plastic stick, so 3-pack replacement were cheap.
as long as it is not fairphone. I am out. I don't want to have to choose between privacy and sustainability.
