i am just about done with linkedin. it's just fartsniffer central, has never gotten me a single lead for a job, and their new ai policy has me real worried.
paypal is basically nonexistent in european commerce. i use it only to deal with american companies, and very reluctantly at that.
if you want a pan-european paypal, bank transfers work. and the various direct payment apps in each country are working with the eu to build an international standard so that you can send from vipps to BLIK or any other.
