    Would it be through Monero, tho? It is important that people can pay for stuff without linking their payment to their identity/themselves and all their content

      Lots of ways of getting payments through … you could even just buy a $50 visa gift card, then just use that to send payment through to someone … I know people aren’t wealthy … I even have a hard time justifying giving some myself … but I do budget myself about $100 a year to give to all the open source, freeware, patreon, subscription stuff to support the people that maintain, manage and create all the sites, services and software that I want to support … I give to Wikipedia, Ubuntu, some other Linux distros I like, LibreOffice, some independent apps I like and now to Lemmy and the software developers that make it all possible … if we don’t support stuff like this … then it all just eventually erodes away and gets sold off like everything before it.

        Right, obviously Lemmy/kbin will want to look at settting up the standards so this is easy and ensures people aren’t doxxing themselves when they financially contribute to their respective sub-communities
