Update on beta testing payments in Signal
I don’t use Signal, nor do I really know much about this situation. But on a quick glance, it sort of reminds me when Keybase added Stellar Lumens wallets.<p>Of course, a lot of the friction with Keybase &amp; Stellar was due to the magic ‘airdrop’ of coins, and all the craziness &amp; flood out outsiders not interested in the Keybase mission itself.<p>But, the part that stands out to be, is many of the long time users or ‘die hards’ being very vocal about their distaste for the move. They say it doesn’t fit here, or ‘we don’t need this’, or whatever.<p>But the way I see it, who really cares? Some people will use it, some will ignore it. But if you’re a dedicated Signal user, and you don’t need or want this, why can’t you just keep using Signal the way you are now and not let it affect you?<p>Why does everything have to be some big philosophical nightmare when a feature you don’t care about gets added?
