    I didn’t know what it was either. If someone wanted me to send them money remotely, I’d probably use Google Pay or PayPal or something. Hooray for being out of touch with the world today!

      I’ve been using Venmo for like, 10 years? I would laugh out loud if someone asked me to PayPal them back for dinner.

          It’s not about that, it’s more that nobody uses PayPal in a casual social setting. It’s like writing a check at the bar.

      A huge reason I don’t use venmo is because it just feels like Facebook Banking. I don’t need status updates on money my friends are receiving or sending to other people nor do I want other people to know what I do with my money. That shit was so weird to me.

        IDK why people make their transactions public. I changed my default to private for that very reason. I don’t give a shot what other people are doing and no one needs to know what I’m doing either.
