Yeah Stripe is a joke considering its size. I much rather use Square which is saying a lot because that is also a poorly run company. Fintech space is a big jok

Yeah Stripe is a joke considering its size. I much rather use Square which is saying a lot because that is also a poorly run company. Fintech space is a big joke. They were selling more fluid payment platforms with less fees/cost to consumers. Instead all-in prices have actually gone up.
- mschuster91 4y ago> Fintech space is a big joke. Almost as if all the "meatspace banking" regulations had their purpose, born out of decades of experience with the many, MANY, M A N Y weird edge cases that crop up sooner or later. Not to say that the meatspace regulations and practices are fine (from an European POV, the fact y'all still use literal paper cheques instead of bank transfers and credit cards instead of direct debit because consumer protection is way easier on CCs), but still... it's amazing none of the fintechs ever really got hit hard by regulation agencies despite the continuous complaints.
