Webmasters › Re: Paypal Now Accepting Payments In Nigeria by werisetogether(m): 2:59am On Aug 31

donsheddy1:
Yesterday,the news broke out from Nigeria's fintech company's CEO Tayo Oviousu (Paga). He stated that Paga had teamed up with PayPal to bring to Nigerians a way to accept and convert USD to naira from PayPal via Paga.

The problem is that a lot of Nigerians are completely against the move and are encouraging a lot of people to boycott PayPal.

The question now is. Will you use PayPal now that they're back?

Thanks for the update

Glad PayPal has finally woken up

Let's hope it isn't too late, especially now that there are other options

Frankly, is there really any unique advantage PayPal has now?

For more options, check sites like Disboard.org (tag: content-creators), DiscordHome, or TheHiveIndex.com.

Thanks for sharing

Which Discord server would you recommend?

Always looking for people to help spread the word about my free Substack newsletter.

The last experience I had on Discord wasn't nice. Felt as if everyone was ignoring me, no matter what I posted.

(Besides, not sure I even remember my Discord password)

Would greatly appreciate your suggestions/advice

Certification And Training Adverts › Re: You've Watched Hundreds of AI Tutorials — But What Can You Actually Build? by werisetogether(m): 12:19pm On Aug 27

Helinuse:
First, there is nothing like AI without background knowledge.
You don't just learn AI to build stuff.

You must be doing stuff and then learn AI to apply it.

Valid point

Without some domain knowledge, using AI can even be a dangerous waste of time.

Imagine someone trying to use AI as a personal medical doctor...

Of course, that's a speculation

Even if he was in debt, aren't there options?

But on a serious note, maybe the zoo needs to upgrade surveillance so people can be stopped before they harm themselves...

A yahoo boy went to do Thanksgiving in a church in Benin city after a successful cash-out inviting his co-yahoo friends using a full cow to thank God after which money started raining down in front of the altar.

Where do we draw the line between content creation and our responsibility as citizens?

If the content creator knows these are Yahoo boys, why not report them to the relevant authorities?

sharone21:
What I do if I need certain information from fbk, is to go to Google and type eg Facebook, house rents in Awka, since fbk has a lot of information and interesting groups. I don't bother registering to be part of it again.
Whatsapp ban can come from using it to advertise things that brings you money.

X ( formerly Twitter) isn't my thing. When it was bought over by Elon, it banned some accounts and mine then was affected. I now thought if I subscribed with some money it will be restored, joke of the century. I just abandoned it

Thanks for this Facebook-Google tip

Rarely on Facebook. Even forgot my password there at a stage.

Then when I re-joined, Team Zuckerberg started asking me to verify myself before I can send messages

X/Twitter? Let's not even go there. Account got hacked, and bots have been replying my messages to get it restored. I see this as a sign to leave that platform.

Interestingly, apart from the occasionally hyper-sensitive spam bots, Nairaland has been relatively helpful in building the right connections

At times, it's not really so much about the number of people who see you but the right people seeing you...

But not easy at all i also have a platform were i do social media educational contents though my followers are limited,but hopefully with consistency,things will turn around for good..Im using this medium to appeal to you,if you have any means to support and assist my project, pls do..You might be suprise you are helping a brother who is a family man with two kids that conscience wouldn't allow him to indulge in scams/yahoo, but channelling his all efforts in doing something positively different..thank sir..

Thanks for your kind words.

Glad to know you're a family man with a conscience to leave a good legacy for your kids

You're doing well with your efforts so far. From my own experience publishing, results tend to take longer than expected. So you'll need to be patient and trust the process. You're sowing seeds and the harvest will definitely show up - if you don't give up.

You can also look into possible trades and collabs with other creatives who may need your book and other services you provide.

Particularly skill for skill trades. This can help you grow your network of partners. With more partners, you can get more sales with time

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to check it out. 🇳🇬📚
I’d also love to hear from fellow Nigerians: What subjects about Nigeria do you think deserve more attention in educational books?

Congratulations on your first book.

How do you plan to let more people know of your book?
