For a decade, Twitter was a part of the journey of Liberapay and its predecessors. Today, we're announcing our intention to phase out support for X.
The Liberapay community has long been more active on the Fediverse than here, so we encourage you to follow us there.
The bad news is that direct debits of Euro bank accounts are now only supported when the donation recipient is in one of the 32 European countries supported by Stripe. The page https://t.co/jxTGkMSEFN has been improved to reflect the limitations of non-European Stripe accounts.
@chadwhitacre Proper account merges aren't implemented: https://t.co/rsl5IEhLYn
However, your second account has now been deleted and its username has been given to your first account.
This is primarily intended for users who are legally obligated to accept donations only from specific countries or inversely to reject donations from specific countries (e.g. Finnish individuals not allowed to collect donations from #Finland).
@TheNudge4 Because there's no consensus on it being a good idea, much less a priority worth spending limited developer time on.

@louispilfold There currently isn't a JSON API, but you can easily download the list of your public patrons in CSV format. For example here's a link to a CSV list of public patrons: https://t.co/N2fw9oW34x
(Replace “LiberapayOrg” with your username to get the list of your patrons.)
The icons used in Liberapay, which basically hadn't changed since 2016, have been updated.
In addition to the visual change, technical improvements have reduced by an order of magnitude the amount of data downloaded by the browser when loading the icons.

In response to concerns expressed by some community members that the contrast of the white-on-yellow Liberapay logo was too low, we're retiring it in favour of the black-on-yellow variant.

- https://t.co/TcbyJP1vug has gained sorting options, so for example you can see the most recently connected repositories.
(The sorting options are at the bottom of the pages.)
New ways to explore Liberapay accounts are now available.
- https://t.co/ITyYE5HyUg lists accounts which receive donations, sorted by income amount or account creation date.
⚠️ Due to a series of errors, some automatic renewal payments which were scheduled to be initiated in the past 14 days have been quietly skipped until today. We apologize for this failure. We will do all we can to ensure it doesn't happen again.
- The Croatian Kuna (HRK) has now disappeared from donation forms.
- All existing donations and scheduled payments in that currency have been converted to the Euro.
- All accounts which had the Kuna as their main currency have been switched to the Euro.
