> It's "money" [that] expires

I agree. I can hold my paper cash in my wallet for as long as I like. Having digital money that expires (even if i can "refresh" the validity period) is a no go. It would have to be used like this: need to buy something? load some money on GNU Taler wallet, buy thing, keep GNU Taler wallet empty.

So it would be just cumbersome to use in real life.

They have awesome uptime for the resources they have, so I am looking forward to the post mortem.

I still don't understand what this breaks. I use a LE certificate for my smtp service, but as I understand it, other mail servers don't connect to it using a client cert, they just check that the cert deleivered is trusted. Or am I missing something?

Does this break some custom setup?

No, it's most probably the PUBG engine.

Just nitpicking here, but Milan (Lombardy) is the second most expensive region in Italy. The first ist South Tyrol: https://www.immobiliare.it/mercato-immobiliare/

Probably because income there is higher than in the province of Milan, and quality of life is better for some indicators.
