Let’s be real here. The problem isn’t that it’s “too complicated” to list the fees. What’s complicated about listing a few numbers? The problem is that they don’t want to list a myriad of fees.

• Man, it’s so annoying to have to use multiple machines because one isn’t beefy enough!
• We can now shove the hardware of 10 machines into one, making it the beefiest!
• Man, it’s so annoying to have to use such a beefy machine!
• We can now divide a beefy machine into 10 mediocre ones, just like you always wanted!

Make it make sense to me.

• Last time I checked, Github required a credit card for its paid stuff.
• PayPal is a privacy nightmare. LiberaPay does accept the usual SEPA wire transfers and debit collects, but only if the recipient accepts them, too.
• Patreon only accepts credit cards or PayPal.
• Crypto… is crypto
• Polar only accepts credit cards and whatever the hell „Cash App Pay” is.

I have access to none of these options, except SEPA iff Bottles accepts it.

I have a feeling that fundraisers would get a lot more funding if they weren’t so US-centric. I’m German. I don’t need a goddamn credit card. I have money. And I don’t want some private company snooping through my accounts.

Phew! For a moment I thought you were talking about the steam compatibility thingy.
