Nice. A lot better than alcohol.

"But me a coffee" isn't literally coffee. It's a way of asking for $5 or so but making it sound more palatable as "well you are just buying a mate a coffee" which people normally do rather than "you are transacting $5 on the internet to a stranger" which people might be more reluctant to do.

But the money won't be spent on coffee, otherwise the influencer will OD. "Buy me a chance to escape the rat race" might be a more accurate title.

well, users can also use buymeabeer.com if they like :)
that's pretty funny. :)
as a creator myself I would be interested in a buymeamacbook.com platform
lol ok i should add this to feature requests - https://building.buymeacoffee.com/feature-requests
