With all of the "buy now, pay later" services, it might be easier to combine them all into one balance. A physical token connected to your account you could use in brick-and-mortar stores would also be pretty neat.

If you're coming to the SDF Mastodon, and you're at all technically inclined, you should check out the main sdf.org shell server. It's been around for a lot longer than Mastodon has.

The #SDF Mastodon server may be a relatively new kid on the block, but SDF itself has been around for a *long* time. It predates the web: https://sdf.org/?faq?BASICS?02

#SDF seems to be having a moment on Mastodon, but there's more to it than that. Lots of fun stuff to do on the shell server. You can meet new folks on bboard and commode, get your email, set up a website, and play games. Check it out! https://sdf.org/?welcome
