cannot believe it is occurring to people that #DOGE IS NOT ABOUT EFFICIENCY BUT #SURVEILLANCE. just like #creditCards #Paypal #Uber #Tesla #Doordash #Amazon #Netflix #GMail #Instagram and every fin/techbro business.

the apartheid clown’s #malware is a ruse to give techbros the power to spy on all Americans.

these are the consequences of your silence while many of your friends & relations vilified us for saying, DEFUND THE POLICE. we didn’t just mean PDs. we meant the whole police state.

My EU based alternative to #Patreon and #PayPal for donations is #Liberapay @Liberapay. They are in France, so under GDPR, Open Source, non-profit, they don't sell your data, don't take a cut but rely on donations instead and can do direct debit via SEPA/IBAN, so IMHO a Very Much Good Enough solution :) My yearly donations to #Forgejo and #Makertube are there now. (yes, they also support Stripe and Paypal for payments, but I prefer SEPA/IBAN to keep everything here ;)

Hej, remember when I totaled my car?

Good news! I managed to find another in a relatively short amount of time.

Bad news! It's taking awhile for the insurance payout to clear on the previous car loan, and until that does I'm still on the hook. Assuming that's gonna take a few months, I'm looking at $600 to cover that.

Anyway, I received a voluntary payment of $0.95 via #Gumroad, which deducted a 10% fee. The remaining €0.79 arrived in #PayPal, but then they subtracted a €0.39 fee and a €0.57 partner fee. Now I owe PayPal €0.17. Fantastic! Now I get why they call them PayPal Mafia!
I'm sorry for who sent the money to me, he practically paid the Mob.

Jeg lover, at jeg ikke vil støtte nogle af disse virksomheder, som alle har støttet kejser Trump og hans medsammensvorne:

Elon Musk (Tesla) $ 290 mio.
Open AI $ 1 mio.
Amazon $ 1 mio.
Metà (Facebook/Instagram $ 1 mio.
Uber $ 1 mio.
PayPal $ 250.000
Coca Cola $ 250.000
Airbnb $ 100.000

Someone here suggested WERO, we read about it and have just activated it in our bank. It was very simple and took 2 or 3 clicks.

An all-in-one digital wallet solution:

Wero is a new European payment system designed to modernize the way we handle transactions across the continent. Launched in 2024, it aims to unify various national payment solutions into a single platform.

Wero is the brainchild of the European Payments Initiative (EPI), a consortium of 16 European banks. The initiative was born out of a need to create a sovereign and unified payment solution for Europe, reducing dependence on non-European payment systems like Visa & Mastercard.

With Wero, sending money to friends and family will be much easier because it allows you to send and receive €€ instantly using just an email address, phone number, or QR code. No more IBANS, 3 days of waiting to receive 💸 etc.

It's also a good alternative for Paypal 🇺🇸 and it is designed to replace several national payment solutions, including Giropay 🇩🇪, Paylib 🇫🇷, Payconiq 🇧🇪 🇱🇺 and iDEAL 🇳🇱 which not always work cross-borders.

The roadmap is full of features to be implemented like online and in-store payment.

For the moment, it's available only in Germany, France and Belgium.

@FediverseFoundation Hier in Frankreich wie auch in anderen Ländern) so gut wie unmöglich im Onlinehandel u. vor allem bei der Unterstützung kleiner Künstler und Handwerker, wenn man die nicht verhungern lassen will. Keine ebenso verbreiteten Alternativen.

Aber immerhin sitzt #PayPal (Europe) S.à r.l. et Cie, S.C.A. in Europa in Luxembourg und ist dort eine Bank, unterliegt damit auch der sehr strengen EU Bankenaufsicht.

@P4F_Hamburg @jensprausnitz

Damit sich #wero , die europäische Alternative für #paypal oder #klarna (geht an die US-Börse), etablieren kann, müssen so viele wie möglich diesen Dienst bei ihrer Bank in Anspruch nehmen / beantragen / anfordern und nutzen!
Ich verstehe nicht, warum die Banken Europas keine entsprechende Werbekampagne fahren... 🙄

Da wollte ich heute eigentlich tippen, dass wir jetzt endlich #PayPal integriert haben (für Die, die es gerne nutzen möchten zumindest), da sind tatsächlich schon zwei Bestellungen durchgeschlüpft, dabei war ich noch dabei, das zu testen 😉 Ok, also da andere das viel schneller gesehen haben, brauche ich heute auch nicht mehr darüber schreiben.

I just received news that my car, the main mode of transportation, has been considered TOTALED. Fortunately I'm near public transit; unfortunately it is notoriously unreliable.

I could use the $$$ for bus passes, a down payment, Lyft for crucial appointments, and therapy bills.

When I'm not getting into car accidents I also blog, stream, post essays, build time sites, and cultivating spaces for my Black and Queer friends. A #webring is also scheduled for release in June, and I've been fighting Error 451 codes.

Thank you for helping, boosting, and sending those good vibes my way. I appreciate it all. <3
