I just wanted to help... I am always posting on BTC apps githubs feature requests, bugs, improvements... I just want to help these developers, testing their apps and make them better.

I also write guides and documentation for some apps, and do translations in 4 languages. All for free. Only together we can go forward.

Sorry, maybe I shouldn’t have said "bullied", I just got that vibe from Nicolas’ tweet:

Nooo, not at all,. My intention wasn't to bully them but to make them aware of REAL users requests.

Blink / Galoy team are the good guys so we have to respect them.

lol, I'd refer to it more as shaming @Murch and it's very welcome, when warranted 😄

We had a good laugh at the rant, and not only that, when I commented "I'll create a github issue for it" Darth called us out b/c he had already submit a github issue (much respect for that)

AND it was a request that was also driving me and @andrejstacks crazy.

I just wanted to be heard... It was really annoying for me to have to switch to sats when I wanted to send to a salvadoran (I mostly used Blink to send sats to salvadorans) a bunch of sats and not USD.

many times I put like 50k and was actually 50k USD and I got the error that I do not have such amount of sats!

The UI was really confusing, at least for me, as a bitcoin only user.

you are really insufferable sometimes :)

I really like when people find me an asshole... Because in that moment I know I was telling the truth LOL Is like self control

sorry, too drunk at this hour to be able to make new memes. Anyways, Galoy team are the good guys. Nothing so wrong with them to deserve a "darth meme"
