What I meant by that was all the little (online) services that now force you to sign up, and bully you into a premium subscription.
Conversion tools, image and file hosts, scraper and download tools, editing tools, etc.
Basically anything that is an actual service (compute & storage) should work like a vending machine: sats go in, service comes out. No sign-ups or identity required, because sats are money proper (not credit).
Great leading examples that already allow payment in sats are VPNs and everything around nostr.
My hope is that, eventually, all these little services will skip the signup/credit hell and let us pay in sats outright.
