What if Mastodon had this button?

(I am not involved in core development. This isn't an official proposal. I'm just noodling about with ideas. Don't shout at me in the comments or get weird.)

@Edent

I like the idea. Might be a good place to use e.g. #GNUTaler

@cdonat literally zero people use that. Anything which requires installing yet another app is a non-starter.

#PayPal and #crypto work without an app?

#paypal see #diday

Crypto = $3 today, $3,000 tomorrow.

The fluctuations are extreme.

I don't have an app for either PayPal or Crypto - I send payments to people using the web.
