This is a first version. We're certainly planning to add more payment options, including decentralised ones

Yes, but when? Stripe has been saying the same thing. They will support more countries, and yet, three years later they have yet to support many countries.

Don't get me wrong, I understand that a country can not be supported magically. What I'm against are these comments that are written with (what I believe to be) the best intentions.

But then it's posted, and the person who read it, years later is left with a bad taste in his/her mouth.

It's open source, there's nothing stopping you from integrating it with the payment platform of your choice and contributing the code back to the project.
It is! Oops... I just became that guy :P

But in my defense, it was a general sentiment and not directed to any - one - individual - or company.

It's not the same level of difficulty. Stripe being in more countries means more legal issues to deal with.

Ghost integrating with other processors is "just" a code change.
