None of the articles in the policy are a reasonable ground for asking an identity document to prove that I can fulfill the financial obligation of... Five euros.

Hetzner is not a bank. Moreover, they cannot guarantee that the third party vendor will take great caution to protect my identity. Hetzner does not own the KYC process.

I appreciate that you pointed me to the policy, but if I cannot pay with a German credit cart, using a German ISP as a resident of Germany without uploading my identity doc then I take my business somewhere else.

Competing in a saturated market without a major disruptive edge is unfortunately futile.

These kind of apps rapidly hit a wall due to the "Chicken or the egg" problem. Conglomerates like Match Group have deep pockets for colossal marketing spend, as well as an army of behavioural economist and sociologists to throw at the adoption problem.

I respect free open source work but I think one's time is better spent solving niche problems. Go reverse engineer DSPs or something, we need brilliant people who are running the opposite direction of the Forbes 500.

Wish you both the best of luck and send a hug. I hope the tide turns and you get to enjoy it more with time. We need more people like you in this world.

Oh wow, that puts things into perspective... Pencil stabbing at elementary school evolved into Super Hexagon speed runs at the university lessons. I haven't really seen the connection until now. Gotta stim I guess... Now, back to practice pad to practice rudiments.

At work, I have built a tool that creates Linux images on demand. Long story short, I decided to give them a human readable alias. Told my colleagues that image aliases are generated from a pool of hand-picked bird names, and did not elaborate further.

I am looking forward to see the face of the first person to discover rough-faced-shag or cock-tailed-tyrant :^)
