👛 The new #eWallet from BPI looks promising, and is already available to current BPI Online users in the @philippines
💰 I like that it takes advantage of the @pinoy #QRph for cross-wallet transactions, to pay or transfer funds to other eWallets like #Gcash, #Maya, #ShopeePay, etcetera.
✅ So far, it doesn't seem to charge anything for the service, and the best thing about it is that #DuckDuckGo's APT doesn't report any tracking attempts by the app.
Happy #NewYear #Philippines!
It's 2023-01-01 in the Gregorian #calendar
Let's declare this year as our Nation and Country's recovery. The year of #Ppop (i.e. the Philippine music industry) and #Pdrama revival!
@youronlyone my question back is, how should we even know about fragmentazion, if we dont see what we miss on servers that we never discover because of missign or blocked federation?
Also, Fun Fact: I almost bought the mastodon.ph domain in early November, but ultimately decided I don't want the trouble of setting up and maintaining an instance for the PH crowd, lol. Good luck, @christopher !
Definitely not easy.
I used to run a public Friendica instance for the Philippines, way, way, way, back. Forget about moderation, taking care of the backend, frontend, and the cost, were already challenging. Not to mention, introducing and explaining how things work; and I have to work too. ^_^;
But, it was a learning experience. A taste of what’s it like to run an #SNS for the Filipinos.
Mozilla announced they will be launching #MozillaSocial in 2023.

It goes all the way back to the ancient times of #SouthKorea ^_^;;

Yep, that can happen. I wonder how they’ll determine… should always bring an official diagnosis?
Here in the #Philippines, we’ve had priority lanes for years now. It was filtered through the PWD ID, one has to bring it with them if they want to avail of priority lanes and other related benefits and services (like the 20% discount on necessities and food).
I’m not sure how it works for foreigners, since PWD ID, or related, is, I think, only a thing here in my country. Definitely no “lanyards” though. It’s too exposing for our sensibilities because there are those who doesn’t want to go too public about it (other than the priority lanes).
Still, I agree, it’s a start. (Sometimes I wish, when I was growing up there were these considerations already, I hate waiting in lines.)
“Dubai Airports to add autism-friendly measures for travellers with hidden disabilities”
All passengers wearing sunflower lanyards — an international symbol designed to raise awareness of hidden disabilities — will be able to utilise the route.
The sunflower lanyards will also provide airport workers with a visual cue that a passenger may need extra assistance, additional time or more support while in the terminal.
…
Last year, Abu Dhabi International Airport introduced two sensory devices designed to help relax children with conditions such as autism. (see: https://www.thenationalnews.com/uae/health/2021/12/31/abu-dhabi-airport-opens-sensory-rooms-for-children-in-need-of-support/)

I am sorely disappointed!
A random netizen asked (translated), “Can we report to the Department of Labour and Employment, employers who force us to dance during #Christmas parties?”
To which an influential personality, and attorney, replied (translated), “It depends on the song 🤪”
Sure, it is funny. But, it is no laughing matter for those of us who are #Neurodivergent. And for someone like him, he should’ve had known better.
