Not sure about the name of the systems, and I’ve seen them change names a lot over the years
But I think it’s a pretty universal thing in the EU, that you’re able to pay directly using an IBAN, I’ve even seen “direct bank tranfer” in stores that sell across the EU
Wow, so many downvotes probably from people hating the news, this is not what the downvote button is for.
It’s about if a post or comment contributes or triggers interesting and engaging discussions.
Specifically for news articles, I find it important to upvote if I’m glad the article was posted at all, since it helps raise awareness about an issue etc, or if I probably wouldn’t have found the article posted on another platform, so maybe I wouldn’t have learned about it at all.
Even if it’s fake news, it’s better for me to be aware that misinformation in being spread about the issue, with people in the comments explaining why it’s fake with sources etc.
The upvote/downvote button is not a change.org petition for making a problem go away by disagreeing with it.
