In this case, Stripe is adding themselves as a middleman.

Whether or not it was the point of Bitcoin from the start, "removing the middlemen" is bullshit because you still need exchanges, wallet providers, people running nodes, etc. Cryptocurrency in practice just transfers power from traditional middlemen to new technically-advantaged middlemen.

As someone who is very pro Free Speech and hates censorships in general, banning these toxic social media especially for Kids is a good idea and as a parent, I am all in for it. If you cannot smoke/drink till 21, you shouldn't be able to do Social media till then. It is that bad especially for children.

That's really extreme. There are definitely better ways to manage it. Tiktok in Singapore has been very thoughtful in their approach which seems to be working.

> There is no anonymity between the creator and Patreon, or between Patreon and patrons. The anonymity is between the creator and the patrons.

that is exactly the problem. You have two relationships here: author -> patreon and author -> patrons. The first one is irrelevant, the second on is the problematic one. You cannot be anonymous in one case and not in another. That is not how business, law or taxes work - anywhere. Just because patrons do not want to know the legal identity does not mean it is legal to hide it. You could get sued for tax avoidance like that.

Isn't Patreon the merchant of record?

I find CSS terrible to work with but I fail to see how this is any better.

  <div class="[grid-area:span_1_/_span_1_/_span_1_/_span_1] max-[991px]:h-[400px] max-[767px]:h-[250px]">

I am familiar with TW, but not familiar with this syntax. Can someone explain or link to where it explains it?

Considering there are dozens of mainstream serverless hosting providers out there already, with more popping up every day and pricing going down to ~free, I can't really see this being a viable business model anymore.

It's never available to anyone in the world. I think all countries have at least one sanctioned other country, because sanctions are usually applied uniformly in a bloc.

If you are being in a sanctioned country, good luck applying

I think OPs point is most companies put "Remote", but it's restricted to a region which is usually US and usually unclear.
