As some of you have noticed we've added the possibility of connecting a Stripe account to a Liberapay account. This is only a first step in our migration away from Mangopay, we know that Stripe only supports a limited number of countries, we're working on adding other payment processors as well, including PayPal which covers more than 200 countries.

The new page to manage your payment accounts is https://liberapay.com/about/me/payment/ (please excuse its shortcomings, it's a work in progress).

Just emptied my @Liberapay wallet just like they recommended to do. Looking forward to them finding a better solution than Mangopay! Looking forward to supporting people and organisations with this great libre service! Keep up the great work, and good luck for the transition 👍 ✊ 🌈 #liberapay

Loading common web pages without ad/tracking blocking (including browser-level tracking protection) and watching the network tab is honestly a surreal experience. Like observing a malignant force that wants to consume you, the consumer.

Good post about Mastodon's features for dealing with abuse and harassment: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2018/07/cage-the-mastodon/ I didn't realize inability to search arbitrary strings was a) part of the platform, b) an intentional choice to thwart a lot of bad stuff that happens on the birdsite. It's a bummer for some things (finding a joke you can only remember a few words from) but I understand the value of that decision.

If I had a dollar for every time someone had complained about -Werror in my projects, I could pay them to stop complaining about Werror

Some of you have suggested that we should create separate Mastodon accounts for the different languages we toot in (currently: English, French, and Spanish). We may end up doing just that, however we think it would be great if the multilingual support of Mastodon could be extended instead, so we've submitted a proposal: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/6920

Good news: teams are no longer limited to a single currency.

If you're a member of a team you can modify the currencies it accepts by editing its profile.

In some cases you can also modify the currency of your "take" (by clicking on the currency symbol next to the amount input).

Reminder: you can manage your team takes from https://liberapay.com/about/me/receiving/
