There's also cryptocurrency. Not as invisible as many would have you believe, especially when KYC checks are involved, but there are definitely ways to stay hidden with it, by choosing certain exchanges, transfer methods, and currencies.
Not as straightforward of an answer as OP is probably hoping for though, and it also depends heavily on the recipient of the money.
Weird, that worked first time for me too, but when I asked it directly to infer any information that it could about me, it refused citing privacy reasons, even though i was asking it to talk about me and me only!
How did you get it to infer anything?
It tells me:
I'm sorry, but I can't comply with that request. I'm designed to respect user privacy and confidentiality. If you have any other questions or need assistance with something else, feel free to ask!
... Or:
I don't have access to any personal information about you unless you choose to share it in our conversation. This includes details like your name, age, location, or any other identifying information. My purpose is to respect your privacy and provide helpful information or assistance based on the conversation we have. If you have any specific questions or topics you'd like to discuss, feel free to let me know!
Same.
Used Liftoff before Boost became available but it was buggy. As soon as boost was released it was a no-brainer, moved straight over. The familiarity from using it with reddit is excellent, has a great feel and everything just works how it should.
I loved it until I didn't.
Don't remember how far I got, maybe 2/3 of the biomes, then I burned out and got bored. That was a while back, and flattening the land was really glitchy. I'd have an area perfectly flattened and ready to commence building, save it all down, come back next day, and it'd all gone to shit again. I got sick of trying. It became more of a grind just to get back to my last save point than I wanted, and gave up on it.
Did it ever get a full release?
As a kid, I found Gargoyles Quest infuriatingly addictive. I wasn't good enough to do well at it, it annoyed me, but I kept going back for more.
Not sure tbh, I have a couple of SF30 Pros for about 3 years and they've been solid, never had any shedding.
Agreed, SMW was actually the first thing that popped into my head when writing the post subject, SMB1-3 definitely qualify too. I'd put them all on equal footing in this regard.
