I post LF content on here & they are always my most popular posts + receive the most comments saying content was super informative or useful, or just saying thanks and they learned something new.
LF content can definitely look weird on SN if not done correctly. The key is breaking up the content into smaller chunks and adding in images and different text formats (i.e. larger titles, quotes, etc).
Below is my most recent LF post, which you can see is broken down into easier bite-sized chunks of info. Additionally, at the top of the article, I always first put the estimated read time.

Overall, IMO the benefits of LF content are:
- Richer and in-depth information
- Enhanced discussion quality
- Encourages diverse content creation
- Promotion of expertise and thought leadership
Some kind of long form pinned article sub?
Yep.
Individual blogs where members can post and collect their own prior posts?
Good - it would give writers a stronger sense of identity and ownership over their contributions.
Some sort of a signature footer for message replies, like a canned email signature response, where a few prior posts are linked?
50/50 on this. Could be valuable, but would need to be implemented correctly - to avoid appearing cluttered or from the feature being misused for spamming.
Great one! I agree - nothing compares to that feeling of seeing zaps come through on nostr.
Nostr may be a tad more intimidating and with a higher learning curve than Twitter (which most people are already familiar with)
Thank you!
Yeah, could write tons of common mistakes - the key thing for any Bitcoiner is learning on the way. As you progress down the endless Bitcoin rabbit hole, you will face new obstacles and mistakes
That is true & a fair point!
However, the poll doesn't really mean anything significant - it's only 75 votes, so a tiny sample size and not large enough to make any meaningful conclusions on the Bitcoin community as a whole
Ah, yes! Great suggestion - Will add to bio now
Wasn't there for any cheap promo, was for transparency and attribution purposes - as articles are posted verbatim
I'd argue that nobody completely understands Bitcoin. I believe that once you fall down the rabbit hole, you never stop falling.
Mm, I don't really agree with the balance idea. Balance in what? Ethereum? Pepe? Other shitcoins?
If Bitcoin is far superior than literally all 23,000 other cryptocurrencies, why would balance be important?
