It’s called Web Monetisation. It’s a standard that’s in development. In short, you, the user, can donate/pay money on any website that follows the standard. No patreon, no PayPal, no VISA, no yada yada.

Setup: You install an extension or use a compatible browser, create a wallet with a web payment provider, login / connect with the extension / browser.

Example operation: while browsing you happen upon a website (Lemmy.world for example) or web page (tilvids.com/u/thelinuxexperiment or one of the video pages), the “tip” button is made available, you hit it and 1£ is queued to be sent to the website or person on the webpage. At your leisure, you accept the transaction.

This can be implemented any number of ways e.g statistics are collected (locally) about which websites you visited with web monetisation active, at the end of the month, you are shown a breakdown of that activity. Say 10% peertube, 30% Lemmy, 40% mastodon, and a smattering of other softwares. You say “I want 10£ to be split across the different softwares with a minimum of 1£ per transaction”. Or anything else you can come up with.

That’s it. The website operator doesn’t need you to have PayPal, or patreon, or some special bank. You have a " wallet", you decide how the money is transfered and to whom, and you’re done.

Are you trolling or is this the first time asking for help?

Imagine if someone told you their car didn’t work, you asked what they did, and they said “turned the key in the ignition twice and it doesn’t start”. ? No make, no model, no description of sound or recording of the action, no idea when they got the car checked, no photo of the warning lights, nothing. Would that be enough information for you to help?

As @just_another_person@lemmy.world said: post configs! What is your OS, what commands did you enter, what are the contents of your yml files, which containers are running, which images are you using, etc. Nobody can help you otherwise.

Add the information to the original post.

OK, so you’d be fine with everything you said in private being recorded and then shared with the world? Are you confident you’ve never said anything that’s offensive to anybody? You don’t harbor any opinions you’d only share in private? No information you’d rather keep private? “As long as a participant in the conversation shared it, it’s fair game”, right?

So many things I’d have to look up to understand what’s going on and why this is supposedly transphobic.

What bothers me more is private discussions being aired publicly.
