I would've loved to have a paypal alternative if so many damn services would adopt them.

And no I'm not talking Google Pay or Apple Pay. They're just as bad.

There really isn't going to be, besides giving them your card directly (or paying crypto🤢). PayPal is less about the software and more about the service, which isn't something FOSS can really replace. An alternative would have to have a company behind it that works with major financial institutes and whatnot.
