Show me what you don't like then maybe I can understand the mistake. I really don't see how a link that allows people to get and use bitcoin is a problem. And I bet pretty much anybody here knows some people who need easier ramps to use bitcoin. From what I hear people here say it's actually one of the main things that prevents zapping. And I bet anybody here interacts with some entity that sells bitcoin for fiat. We all work to make this less and less but we don't need to lie about it. Any bitcoin tool invites more people to join I wish we would be more constructive about achieving the goal.

No use arguing with bumi. He blamed me for the alby hub exploit that was used to hack me and accused me of being ignorant, and then blamed Ben Arc and Lnbits, when it was them that made bad architectural choices that make their users lose their funds. i was most likely hacked my some alby internal. Bumi doesn't have the capacity to apologize or to accept blame, which is normal on this industry that is so hard to get funding.

So far I agree with this point of view.

The question was "what do they mean by "Lightning pop-ups" ". From what I understand it's just about receiving bitcoin by selling shitcoins through swap services. We don't deal with shitcoins directly in the app so that's perfectly fine from my point of view.

the fact that I have to flip a switch to hide shitcoins tells me all I need to know

Do not confuse bitcoin p2p exchanges with fixedfloat shitcoin casino. Are not the same. And again, if you are so "ok" with somebody using their shitcoins to top up a LN channel, it means YOU are OK with giving your sats for that top-up, right? That exchange cannot be done if somebody else is not giving away his sats. The sats are not coming from thin air... are coming from an idiot that is taking in exchange the shitcoins. THIS is what Alby is supporting and facilitating.
