But then all payment options are mass surveillance tools.

Matrix server running in my basement to communicate with friends and family starting to look better every day.

It should just provide a Bitcoin address.

Preferably lightning.

Is it really that hard to spin up a BTCpayserver damn!

For a company with the kind of infrastructure and privacy focus of Signal there's just no excuse.

Why can't you pay in the shitcoin they integrated directly into the app?

Oh I forgot about that. Wasn't that wisely abandoned?

Still in the latest version: Settings -> payments

Someone should run a network sniffer to see how much these payment SDKs phone home just by rendering the logo. Not even the payment itself.

Main reason for not supporting bitcoin is that there is no good sovereign solution.

Many such cases!

You mean accept it for donation or planning to integrate it in the app?

I was refering to the latter, even if not directly in line with your comment, of Signal integrate bitcoin lightning or ecash, then for sure they would accept it for donation.

The entier UX was alreay engineered to integrate the dismissed MobileCoin shitcoin, so it would not be a huge effort to adapt the backend to another payment system, especially if it's done already in several nostr client, they don't need to reinvent the wheel.

But I don't see it coming soon, that's why I was hoping that Molly could do it somehow.

Molly I mean the fork app, not Mollie. 🙄

Last I heard they wanted to work with Monero for this, there's a Monero bounty for it

Molly devs are into Monero.

Still better than MobileCoin but they didn't plan to implement it to send Monera between users, right?

Is there bot on Signal, that we could use to do a kind of lntip bot?

They wanted to integrate Monero, but I don't no the state of the project.

Sad to see.

I thought they accepted bitcoin as a payment

Kinda weird

You think they would focus on anon payments like bitcoin or Monero🤷
