Paypal has just become entirely unusable to me

Paypal has just become entirely unusable to me.
Now they're apparently asking for SMS verification AND a WhatsApp code, that I have to enter.
I don't use WhatsApp.
Time to discard Paypal as well, since Wero is coming up anyways and I now have a Debit card I can use for online payments...

I use neither #PayPal nor #WhatsApp.

Somehow my life has remained meaningful (to me) without having to create an account with these monsters.

@rameshgupta There was a time when PayPal was actually much more convenient than using bank transfers. But that time is over. I just used it out of convenience. But since it now requires me to use WhatsApp, which I don't use for obvious reasons, it's gone from my stack. The convenience of being able to ignore it and keep using it, not having to swap it out, has gone out the window by enshittification.
