@alice oo, the liberapay faq links to this list of a bunch of crowdfunding/donation sites: wiki.snowdrift.coop/market-research/other-crowdfunding#traditional-donation

looks interesting!

@alice it's also such a shame that cryptocurrencies turned out to be so incredibly shit in so many ways.. They could actually have been pretty interesting for this specific use case

though on the other hand, the European SEPA system would allow you to just share your IBAN and SWIFT, and people could just transfer money from their banking apps, no payment processors involved. sadly the US isn't in on it :(

@alice @AltAfterDark It is true that payment processors seem to be the problem here, as liberapay say the same:
The payment processors Liberapay supports have unfavourable policies towards sexual content. PayPal requires pre-approval, and Stripe prohibits it entirely. So, while it is possible to use Liberapay for some adult-only content, it is usually better to use a platform specialized in such content.
(en.liberapay.com/about/faq#nsfw-creators)

Though Liberapay do seem a lot more lenient about it than BMAC

whenever I try to use an llm for even the simplest repetitive programming tasks I don't feel like doing, I just walk out with a "fine I'll do it myself"

this can't just be me, can it

Like a lot of the use cases I see for generative AI, it boils down to "just send me your prompt" rather than having the token spewer spit out tokens.
Yes yes yes yes
