This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Denmark is an extremely high trust society. Babies left in the carriage outside a shop, let yourself into the library after hours with your card, often things on the street that are for sale you can just take and mobile pay (like Venmo ~~but from the government~~) someone on the honor policy.
It's nice
I don't think Mobilepay is from the goverment. It was originally created by a bank, and actually there were several competing options to start with. This one won out, and is indeed the dominant mobile payment option, but as far as i know, it still is a separate and private company https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MobilePay
Oh, duh, danske bank made it. Good call!
