No, this newsgroup is "comp.mobile.android". So it is about *Android*.
And if some asks if people use one of two payment apps for *Android* the
reply that you use Apple Pay is completely off-topic here.

It's like if someone asks about programs in Windows in a windows
newsgroup and you would then explain what programs you use in your mac
instead because you don't use Windows at all.

You wrote that you use Apple pay and that you don't want tech companies
financial sector in any way.

Well - Apple *is* a tech company and Apple Pay *is* an involvement in
the financial sector.
