Or at the very least choose to make buying articles or an entire issue not more expensive and inconvenient as buying #print by having an easy #SMSpayment option like @heiseonline.
#Subscriptions are a #Downgrade unless they actually provide a #Service.

Transfer #XMR privately, relatively fast, at low fees.
In that regard it competes with (Instant-) #SEPA, #WesternUnion, #SMSpayment #TransferWise, #CashApp, #Venmo, #SofortÜberweisung, #PayPal (and as #PaperWallet: #Paysafecard).

Nichts hindert die daran auch sowas wie #SMSpayment zu ermöglichen, wo man einfach nen Code per SMS an ne entsprechende Rufnummer schickt und die dann den Mikrobetrag abbuchen.
Das hat z.B. @heiseonline so für deren Artikelkauf gemacht...
