You should look into integrating BAT (Brave browser) with saidit. People can easily tip with that thing and they get the crypto for free just for using the browser which has a bunch of privacy stuff built into it, it seems like the best browser at the moment.

It's chromium-based :/

I believe d3rr did that already, and we have built up like $13 worth of BAT tokens or whatever in the last 2 years. So it hasn't been a huge boon, but it's there, I believe.

Yeah you have to click the address bar triangle thing to set it up kind of manually, it's not really noticeable even to Brave users. I would recommend having something more visible for supporters in the Saidit banner or something. A link to a page that has every way of donating, including BAT that is easily accessible from any page on the site. When I used to use Shitjude Bitchute, they had a monthly goal donation pot thing, something like that could work.

I've had the browser for 6 months and I have about 3 times as much as that alone, 100 regular users in the US/Canada/UK could quite easily fund this site without them even paying a penny if they just each hedged 1 BAT per month to this site.

Guys on this site are very libertarian and privacy orientated so I think "shilling" Brave and making it part of the Saidit culture is the way to go really. The main points of Brave are this:

  • Users earn money for using the browser < everyone loves this

  • Users have privacy online < Saidit users love this

  • Users get an easy entrance into crypto < people who aren't in already love this

  • Users can very easily give some of their BAT to creators, websites etc they support through the crypto with literally 0 effort < everyone loves this

I've said this for years.

Oh. No worries, it seems more effort than it's worth. I do remember we spent quite some time messing with it. Maybe someday we'll set it up. D3rr was the one who would know the most about the BAT stuff, I never really messed with it

ATH of BAT was $1.50 although it's in the shitter right now.

Edit: perhaps more usefully, you pay for Brave ad campaigns in BAT I believe. Pile up BAT when it's cheap for a cheap ad for Saidit if you want it.

That's not true either.

The problem is they needed a name with a mobile phone number. I didn't have one then. I have one now. We can set this up if you like. You can even give me a percentage for handling it. If you trust me. You have no reason not to. I've not lied or cheated. Your only beefs with me, so far as I know, is when you take offense at things I've stated, when I disagree with you, when I challenge your management "style", and when I called out your bullshit on occasion. The option is yours, with me or anyone else with a real name and mobile number.

Not sure that's correct at all.
