@evilham@chaos.social This service is more about providing and giving back some valuable content to the community, especially for people who can't afford this. There're many people out of our personal standards who are very interested into tech and motivated to learn and educate themself our in self organised groups. I often saw how they learn and writing code on paper sheets. If they can somehow afford a device, they still miss everything else. This is where I try to step in by providing free systems. However, also my resources are limited but even if it just helps a single person it was worth.
But of course there're also people who want to abuse everything (within the first iteration last year
, BoxyBSD got abused for spamming). While spamming is just an easy thing to deal with, things can escalate quickly. That's why I need somehow an easy verification system that is not too annoying. If PayPal is no option (which I can fully understand), there could also be a fallback solution.
