rdis@AlexJimenez I just found you based on aisafety tag. As you work with payments, fintech and you are on open source decentralized social network, I will ask you a random question: have you looked into open source payment system GNU Taler and what are your thoughts? Personally I very much want private payments to be available & I love openness ideas of this and open source community involvement in this area. I will add links to another toot. #gnutaler
