Great thread debunking the hysterical propaganda smearing anti-establishment Yellow Vests as the work of "Russian bots." These mass movements are driven by the very real & very large human costs of carbon taxes, mass immigration, & many other elite leftist & neocon policies.https://twitter.com/Recursion_Agent/status/1071734446959849472 …

As far as I know none of big guys have tried this. Perhaps a few small ones, that provided very low value information already, have failed, it doesn't surprise me at all. However, I know at least 1% of readers do purchase subscriptions for high value publications.

an uncensorable distributed social network would be a game-changer though

I'd love to see that! Perhaps it could be our next project when we run out of improvements to make in our app. A huge challenge indeed

I have never seen a one click instant buy button or qr code in any of the mayor publications. You may have info I don't since I haven't been that long in the country or with access to internet. Anyways, I sent them emails, it's worth a try.

They did large scale (but mostly not general public) trials, which were extreme failures, so they didn't take it any farther.

With Bitcoin or LN? When did this happen? Did Bitcoin already have significant network effects when this was tried? Sorry I ask so much, it really surprises me this has been tried before.

Micropayments in already very widely accepted fiat. Please read my article I linked to, you're not understanding what I am saying.

I did read the entire article, I do understand and agree on the saturation and high mental accounting costs to the average consumer. However, I'm not referring to convoluted fiat registrations. My hope is for simple crypto micro-payments to capture rejected traffic at paywalls

There is some benefit from reduced need to fill out forms, but it is eliminated or more by adding a burden of small payments instead of long-term subscriptions: https://unenumerated.blogspot.com/2015/10/minimizing-consumer-worry.html …
