So I make an effort to not be a dot commie so I went ahead yesterday and created a crypto account and put some money towards the upkeep of this site. If you aren't aware Po.ast was deplatformed by their payment service so the only way to support the site is through crypto. I ended up using an LibertyX ATM and the Mycellum wallet as suggested by @teknomunk. Here are a couple of thoughts and observations.

First if the ATM doesn't say Bitcoin, or the name of the specific brand (LibertyX in this case) or has a big bold button asking if you want to buy crypto something is wrong. The first place I went claimed to have a LIbertyX ATM but as far as I could tell it was just a regular ATM and that was because it was. It had been recently swapped out but Google Maps hadn't caught up yet. Luckily I had several other choices nearby. When I went to the next location it said Bitcoin and LibertyX right on the exterior and when I looked at the screen there was a buy bitcoin button.

Second go ahead and connect your wallet and your atm app before you even go to do it. Not a big deal but just easier to have that ready.

Third they take the fees out of the amount to buy. For example i bought $100 and the fees were $14 so I received $86. So if you actually want $100 you'll need to anticipate those fees.

Fourth something i've noticed over the years is people think if they can't send $10,000 there's no point to sending anything which is ridiculous. let me note this is a real world observation. I used to be the factotum and general dogs body for GMI and I came across this attitude all the time. I plan to send $20 a month and if each Gab refugee did the same the monthly expenses would be covered with some excess for the proprietors. Please don't be a dot commie the folks that run this place have created a cool place for us to parade our diagnosis and it behooves us to pony up to keep it running.

If you have any questions feel free to reach out. I'm mostly a moron but I have done it once so if I can help I will.

@graf @WhiteAmericanEskimo @Escoffier That sounds pretty bad, you were getting 1.4k or so before the gabbers decided to destroy you. And now you only get 200? Fuck, i have to be blunt with you but it seems like it is over, unless you promote crypto much more. There should be ways to easily get crypto with a credit card and not so high fees.

@graf @WhiteAmericanEskimo @Escoffier Also i absolutely agree with a public leaderboard or something that promotes donating, anything can help when things are this desperate.

@WhiteAmericanEskimo @graf @Escoffier This should be done at the very least.

@graf @WhiteAmericanEskimo @Escoffier @TrevorGoodchild Also, can't you set up a subscribestar @graf ? seems like they accept credit cards directly.

@TrevorGoodchild @graf @WhiteAmericanEskimo @Escoffier @graf I see, too bad. I guess crypto it is then. That Adrew tutorial seems pretty good and Graf should make a post with a summary and pin it. Also bring back the donation meter.

@DNutzinski @graf They did it right after poast got the goal, very nasty people. Probably has to do with gab being butthurt too.

managed to solve the issue of verifying accounts for use with the poast nitter so the 99 in use will hopefully be 150-200 by end of day which will solve all issues with fetching tweetDetails, photoRail etc (the reason viewing tweets sometimes will say "Tweet not found")

@graf Something weird that has happened to me recently is that when i try to view certain accounts it never works.

i have to clarify that this only happens with like 1 specific account so far. And i have tested with one of the other instances of nitter that still works and it works with that one.
