carrying a laptop won't help. If it helped, I won't mind running a termux os via proot also. I dont mind if it isn't optimised for small touchscreen yet.

right now most mobile payment options in my country only work with android/ios. My bank requires a phone for its device token (2fa).

The food and cab ordering platform is also exclusively on mobile only.

very sad
