So are all PayPal users trans, or just dumb cuz they use proprietary software?

Which open source software can I use to transfer money?

(not crypto)

Why use a third-party at all? It's been trivial to send money via bank transfer for a long time, check your banking app or website and you'll likely find a way to send money with just an account number + sort code. If your country has a system like faster payments the transfer will be near-instant too.

Banks are proprietary software

Okay? But you presumably do still have an account with a bank or building society, right? So why use a third party when you can request a transfer from them directly?
