Take payment in Monero but host your material on Telegram? ๐ค
Yes what's wrong with it?) Ik telegram isn't the most privacy respecting Plattform but it's great for my purposes, channels can be made to look very fancy and easy to understand. I thought it was a good idea because communication can also happen right there)
Telegram requires a phone number to sign up, so xmr peeps are reluctant to use it. A lot of the community is on matrix/element for this reason, and I'd suggest to create an account there, so that people can contact you easily.
Sure I will do that!)
At the risk of being "that annoying privacy guy", Matrix is not great either. Your server collects a myriad of metadata.
I'd recommend Simplex or Session.
I know Telegram is probably the most feature-complete messenger in existence so I understand the inclination but your customers that are wanting to pay with Monero are probably doing so because they want to maintain their privacy.
Yes i totally understand and i used simplex aswell as matrix before! Will setup an account there later today and update the link) Onionsite for portfolio is a great idea too!
XMPP is far better. monerobros.club is open for in-client registrations
Monero exists for private transfers. Telegram is not remotely private.
