As much as I’d love to completely get rid of Google/Apple apps, it’s not always possible. My main concern is that I am sometimes required to use two factor authentication apps such as my banking app for example.
I expect these are only available on android/apple store, so my question is, is it somehow possible to emulate android on let’s say pinephone (or any other Linux phone) and get these two factor authentication apps still work?

Yes, look up Waydroid. But a lot of the banking apps and so on are explicitly designed to detect unusual running environments and thus will still not work. Android games etc. typically work fine though.
To add to this, you can also run Waydroid on Linux desktop. Could be a easier way to see of certain apps work.
I’ve used Waydroid on several Linux mobile OS and Waydroid is amazing. Literally no lag while running the apps, even old a low performance phone like the Pinephone.
Let me know of any issues you may have OP. Glad to help out
