@ernest thank you for the update and everything. Its great to hear your personal matter is kinda sorted.
I already have the moderation of several magazines so I won't be able to contribute to that more, I think.
I am a little bit familiar with bug reporting, not in github tho. So I just created a github account and a codeberg to try and contribute. Of course I will have to spend time checking out the existing ones and familiarizing myself with the platforms. I say all this because if you or any of the active devs, have test cases or a specific area that you would like to check first or anything relevant, I would gladly do my best to help on demand.

It looks like we had different visibility of the fediverse, I am in kbin. It seemed like you asked me. Murvel's comment just arrived. It still looks like you ask me.
I don’t really understand the bénef of a central bank digital currency.
It benefits the 1% of the population by controlling all the rest of us. It's a two-tier system (retail CBDCs and wholesale CBDCs) and this is something that is rarely mentioned in mainstream articles.
Retail CBDCs will be linked to your digital ID and your digital wallet, and even tho the implementation may differ from country to country (i.e. Sweden's e-krona vs China's digital Yuan), the thing that will be common is that a centralised entity, will have total control of your digital wallet, including your ID & money.
When the conversation is about wholesale CBDCs, the talk is about how to make things easier for bank interoperability as well as how to facilitate the super-rich.
@watyuhhgg this site you use all the time infoterkiniviral seems pretty dodgy. I start thinking that its content could be AI generated? I say this because:
There is a tone of articles but no author in any of them.
The mainstream articles often fail to mention the differentiation between retail and wholesale CBDCs. Here is a World Economic Forum document that clarifies some of the dystopic potentials of this differentiation:

I thought of adding a couple of sentences to clarify things:

We can think of it as a point system in which all your credit can be erased, or go bellow zero, and your digital ID, can be destroyed with a click of a button.

There are plenty of things I don't get in article and this outlet.
It includes so many quotes that it mentions by who they are said (allegedly), without more info, so I didn't manage to cross-reference them. If anyone else has, could you please share the links?
Who wrote this article and who writes in this outlet in general? There are no authors anywhere, only a gmail account for contact
Also I can't find any info on who funds infoterkiniviral.
@watyuhhgg since you use it quite a lot, could you provide some relevant links?
Portugal’s data regulator, the Comissão Nacional de Proteção de Dados (CNPD), has imposed a 90-day suspension on Worldcoin’s biometric data collection activities in the country, citing complaints about the unauthorized collection of data from minors, inadequate communications regarding their iris-scanning Orb program...
What I like about crypto are the aspects of decentralization and transparency. Meaning for a project to be transparent, it needs to be 100% open source, otherwise nobody can verify their claims. Worldcoin is one of those totally centralised project, that everyone should keep away From. I would call it a scam, cause the way I see things capitalism is a scam but I think a dystopian control project would be more accurate.
In the article it says:
Portugal joins Kenya, (...) in raising regulatory eyebrows
I'd say this is an understatement. Kenya spotted this and suspended it early August 2024. It was launched late July of the same year:
