  1. Question for the banking/privacy-savvy people on Fedi: my bank recently told me I could start using #ClickToPay

    The idea looks OK on paper (you use your email and they validate your credentials with the bank without the website ever accessing said credentials and without going through an additional 3rd party.

    However, I did not find much detail on how this actually works, where data is stored, what is shared, etc.

    What's your opinion on it privacy-wise?

  3. I was fortunate present my thoughts at #FOSDEM 2026. I think it went pretty well... though a little rushed.

    It's at least a good survey of where I think we as a community need to head, and how my work on #Emissary meets each of these needs

    Key Points:
    * Bring creators to the Fediverse (#OnlinePayments)
    * Work together to operate like a single unit (#FEP3b86)
    * Killer Features they can't copy (#DataPortability)
    * Whatever YOU do, go make the Fediverse better

    These folks were way ahead of their time. Hopefully some of the people involved go on to work with some of the more recent online payments projects, like GNU Taler and the Interledger Foundation's Web Monetization protocol.
