I wish everyone would switch to Stripe, I hate to be forced to keep an account on PayPal in order to deal with some partners because PayPal can't just get a credit card and let me pay without trying to be a social network, when some partner send me stripe, it's so easy and straightforward without any fuss

As a user, Stripe is super convenient. As a provider, Stripe is often a nightmare with no explanation provided terminations, nonexistent support and roboemails.

Well, as a user I will get as much as convenience I can get ^^

But yeah I understand that today is a bit of the culture of tech companies to be unreliable, was just thinking about it today, I had few updates on iPhone apps, and all the apps didn't have any explanation, just trying to be funny about having fixed bugs, but no details, software engineering is a bit of a joke nowadays, and I think it's not just software engineering but it's just that companies are a joke, no explanation to customers, not explanation to users, no support etc.
