Now that PayPal decided they wanted to become a censorship organ instead of a payment service I need to find another provider. Are there any good alternatives?

Get a credit card and use Virtual Cards as a firewall for payment protection.

Credit Cards are better than using your Debit Card if you are smart about it. It builds your credit but you absolutely have to pay them off in full every month. DO NOT carry a balance on them. Only dumb fucking retards do that.

The stupidest people on earth pay credit card interest at 25% or higher.

If you pay it off in full every month you dont pay any interest at all.

I do have credit cards, but mastercard and Visa are also gay and trying to censor what games and services people can buy, hence the new problem with Steam being unable to service paypal customers and adding rules that payment services can censor their content. I need to get off that train. Fuck Paypal, Visa and Mastercard.

it seems odd that an industry who thrives on being secure against ever evolving threats has enough time to dictate how you spend your money.
does their shit not stink.

I have no idea, I'm chalking it up to them having employed idiots in their PR departments and giving poor advice to whoever stupid enough to make the decision to go in that direction. Just fucking complete the payments and let the police and customers worry about morality and ethics.

unfortunately we're not at a point where most vendors will accept cryptocurrency
Bitcoin is also problematic in that it is designed to be deflationary and is viewed by most people more as an investment than as a currency
back before Bitcoin was big, when you could still mine it with low-end equipment, somebody on the Bitcoin forums payed another user 10,000 BTC to order him a pizza
probably the most expensive pizza in history, as that BTC is now worth over $1bn
XMR is much better designed to be used as a day to day currency

Revolut has a strong partnership to Visa, so is it really worth the hassle to change to them in order to avoid Visa?

But I'm worried it doesn't really rekt VISA at all. but help them. Since they are essentially the same thing.

Personally I will start buying Paysafe cards to buy games.

Luckily Paypal, Visa and Mastercard will soon be obsolete
Even as early as next year you'll see huge changes to how most people will do business
Satoshi is back with something way better than Bitcoin, you'll see what I mean soon
