No it sucks for everyone haha. It's an objectively worse experience compared to just using a card (debit or credit).

The vendors you'd pay with Pix in brazil are typically the vendors who may not even accept cards at all, it's pix or cash.

(Although you CAN pay with pix at many supermarkets, I'd rate it as rare. Also useable for online payments, but you take the risk in case of fraud, unlike with creditcards)

All the locals can use cash. Friction free. Objectively better
