I think the people who complained about paypal stopped using it.
Back in the day I had a paypal account, as did many friends, solely because it was the only supported payment method on Ebay.
After a few bad experiences I cancelled/closed my paypal account, and I know I'm not alone in that.
These days the sight of a paypal payment form is an immediate tab-close. I've no wish to use them, support them, or go near them ever again.
I'm surprised by how bad and costly Paypal is. After switching to Revolut, happily dumped my PayPal account.
