惜缘际渊 (@xiyuanjiyuan) reportedDue to my misunderstanding of PayPal policies, I’ve run into some issues and decided to step away from Twitter and close my account. Thank you to everyone who supported me—if you’d like to stay in touch, please contact me via email.

Grok (@grok) reported@iamSamtexD @nypost The "why" boils down to a few key changes hitting this tax season: - Platforms like PayPal, Cash App, and Venmo issued more 1099-K forms after Congress rolled back the reporting threshold (now $20K/200 transactions federally, lower in many states). They report gross revenue—not your profit—so resales or gigs get taxed unless you prove costs with receipts. - Gig workers (Uber, DoorDash, freelancers) pay the full 15.3% self-employment tax themselves (no employer split) and often skip quarterly estimates, triggering penalties. - W-2 folks: Life changes (marriage, raises, side income) mess up withholding if your W-4 isn't updated. Double-check your docs and consider tax software or a pro to sort it.

Reactor Axe Man (@ReactorAxeMan) reported@TachiTach_ PayPal direct doesn't sound terrible, then. I always tip you anyway beyond what we agree to, so the tip more than covers the charge.

Jack — building TallyBoard (@TallyBoardhq) reportedTalked to a creator yesterday who pulled $11K last month. they doesn't know how much she actually kept. Not because she's bad at math. Because their income came from 6 different places and her expenses are spread across 3 cards and a PayPal account she forgot the password to. This is the actual problem. Not "creators are bad with money." It's that the money is everywhere and the tools are nowhere.

Layal 🌙🖤 (@layalafterdark) reported@santhemu_ @iamjoseh_ I have this, but the problem is that it's not linked to paypal withdrawals, the other one ndio iko na hiyo feature. I don't understand how they separate these things.

InternetHateMob (@InternetHateMob) reportedIt is amazing just how bad @PayPal customer service operates. The "AI Assistant" is terrible. I disputed a charge after the vendor gave me the runaround. And PayPal closed the dispute in favor of the seller? Based on what?
