Robosats fiat payment methods

Hey guys. I've been experimenting with robotsats lately, which if you haven't heard, is a newer lightning based P2P bitcoin exchange. If you're interested then check out the github repo.
Since the goal of it is privacy, I wanted to know what you guys think the most private fiat payment method to use on it is, particularly for USD. Currently a lot of people on the platform accept Zelle and CashApp, and a few will do PayPal or Venmo. Which of these would be the best for preserving your privacy when buying bitcoin on robosats? Or is there a different method that might work better?

I think any of the options you name ultimately wipe out privacy expectations. I think your best bet is using gift cards which you pay for in cash.

Use grandma credit card / bank account if you are so concerned for "privacy". Done.
I mean, what could possibly go wrong if the other party knows from who are coming those shitcoin fiat? You are showing only a payment details, is not a full KYC shit... and it could be ANY payer, no need to be you exactly.
Nothing can do. Nothing. Bitcoins are already gone into a a LN channel and from there into a swap onchain and lost forever.
The best way: EARN IT. Demand to be paid in BTC. Done. Damn, it, learn to work for bitcoins and dump the fucking shit fiat, once and for all.
We already have more than 90% of BTC mined, in circulation, enough to start a circular economy.

I guess cash by mail order or gift cards would be the most private, but they are both ballaches, yes you dox some details with paypal and the like, but once you have the bitcoin submarine swap it to on-chain and have it hidden in the ether
