I should probably add to my bio at some point that thinking about or discussing daylight savings time instantly transforms me into a hissing gollum.

WE HATES IT, precious. WE HATES IT SO MUCH. Nasty little timeses.

Dear mastodon instance admin, I will happily take over the hosting of your instance if you cannot handle the administrative burden (time or cost)!

https://fedicloud.au/ by @PostersUnionAU has the capacity to host 10+ instances in dire straits or not.

(I hate to hear that instances shut down without notice)

Do people de-Googling their Android phones have any alternative to Google Wallet? Or do you just suck that one up? Or not bother with that functionality? (I'm going with the last option, but I'm increasingly seeing the advantage of the functionality)

[edit 2: think I've got enough boosts now, thank you fedi, that's been great reach]

Edit:

I can see from the replies that I've seriously misrepresented my issue. I don't, I absolutely DO NOT want to use my phone for payment. I consider it a massive physical and electronic security risk, and contactless payment with a card which fits in a nice (metal) holder is so much easier (having dealt with app reward cards for coffee shops). (Or multiple cards, so nobody gets a consistent view of my purchases.)

What I am after is one app to gather together all the tickets (rail, event, hotel booking) that I've purchased online rather than having to mess around finding the right downloaded QR code. I'm coping with that strategy, but I can see the appeal of not doing it. (I'd probably be printing the QR code, but I'm not getting clean results out of my printer these days.)
