You say that but it's literally the only way to counter scamming sellers on the internet. PayPal needs to stay, at least until there are viable competitors.
How is it "literally the only way to counter scamming sellers"? There are so many competitors out there that offer better services... Stripe, Google Pay, Moneris, Braintree, Square, WePay, Authorize.net, the list goes on...
I'm talking about eBay and Craigslist sellers, not companies. Anything I buy from companies I can just put on a credit card and chargeback if scammed.
Edit: also googling around none of those seem to have the solid buyer protection that PayPal has. With PayPal I can just open a dispute with a picture of the error (color is off or whatever) and within a relatively short time period the seller is forced to reimburse me the full purchase cost, including shipping. That's very valuable as a customer.
Maybe in the US it's simpler, but recently I had to do a chargeback on my Polish credit card and first of all I couldn't even initiate one until the transaction was fully processed(while it was only showing as "pending" on my account), so that took 3 days, then I could file a chargeback by making a complaint about a transaction, which I was then told would be "reviewed in no more than 2 weeks" and that is genuinely what happened - the transaction was reversed and the money returned but it took the full 2 weeks from the day I requested a chargeback.
