Inspired by @ek's reddit bounties and this bounty by @Aardvark, I'm going to offer a 10k sat bounty every Wednesday for the next 10 weeks for evidence of the best effort to promote Stacker News in various ways. If you all do a good job, maybe the bounties will get bigger.

This week's bounty is for the new post promoting Stacker News on X that gets the highest number of retweets by high noon tomorrow (Texas time).

Comment below a link to your post for verification. If you add a screenshot, I'll zap you.

10,000 sats paid
Scoresby's bounties

I have a good amount of followers, so hopefully some of them come over to SN!

We always share our weekly appointments and ads posted in the ~AGORA on x and nostr... here the latest one:

N: https://iris.to/note1qqqqvsklr3l8fjjuyu0lr0973vf5vuvpj8jkf6s74shq9eummwrswu3hue

X: https://x.com/AGORA_SN/status/1933127049285403067

Still early and engagement is really low... We also recently implemented a version of @istealkids' bot. Thank you, it's really useful!

So exciting!

I never bother with X these days, but your bounty motivated me to try my luck with an article I had penned last year.

May the odds be in my favour!

My entry is ~HealthAndFitness bot latest X post featuring @Undisciplined!

Here’s the @istealkids explanation of the bot. He wrote the code. #999588

Here’s the bounty I posted #996516

It is NOT a bot to post spam on SN

It is a bot to repost every ~HealthAndFitness post onto X and Nostr for maximum reach! I encourage everyone to follow this bot so they can repost the bot’s posts to help every SN OP get more sats!

I would never accuse it of being a spam bot. But i'm not convinced that auto-reposting on X or nostr actually results in that much engagement.

It posts everything and even the same post again if just one comment was added.

I suspect it's pretty low SNR.

it used to do but now it doesn't
I resolved the db error in #1001373

This bot is great for territory founders. We need more of these...

Why? is he against bots?

I don't like much either when they are repetitive and boring. I'm trying to humanize my fork a little bit more, creating more message variations and randomizing the time of posting.

reply

I'm not against bots, but it often feels to me like they don't get much engagement. People pretty quickly learn to ignore them.

reply

it doesn't true, I had other ways, but this was a bounty bot but still someone can keep track of SN events cross platform, it does improve accessibility.

reply

@Scoresby He says it DOES improve accessibility!

@BlokchainB never saw @Undisciplined Accountability post until the bot posted on Nostr!

reply

In the face of your evidence, I am corrected! Luckily, I am very good at ignoring evidence.

reply

Haha that is one proof 😂

reply

Do you think it results in less engagement?

reply

@realBitcoinDog is the brains behind getting a bot for ~HealthAndFitness made. I have high hopes for that one, he should pop in and explain it more.

reply

I'm hoping for more organic action with these bounties, but I love what you guys are doing!
