Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of 'non-google' approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.

Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that's true or not..

Yeah those are the main reasons. It's also proprietary, and the only way you to create an account/back up your stuff is by entering a phone number, which isn't exactly great for privacy.

Oh yeah the phone number thing and sim swapping.
