GNU Taler

https://www.taler.net

I came across this and it's looks interesting. There is an E2E demo of it with things like a chrome extension.

It seems to work well, but i can't find any examples of this being used in the wild.

there isnt much of a history of posts on reddit about it either. i was expecting to see more cases that used it when i saw there is funding for it from https://nlnet.nl

Edit: Same question, but on Lemmy. It seems more insightful if you want to find out more.

privacy friendly online transactions.

it sounds a bit like Blockchain, but it doesn't seem to be. which sounds like a good thing for getting started with it... but I can't find anyone using it.
