If it becomes a game for payment, rather than dopamine, you’d think you would want to optimize for quality and value, not cheap engagement. I’m not rolling in it, and sample size of one, but this post seems to be doing better at earning people’s sats than a lot of the other stuff that might be more likely to attract upvotes (i.e. a very bitcoin-friendly news headline that otherwise required zero “work”).
The thing to consider is that this community is small and filled with deep enthusiasts... I think if we would have community with rest of the population, the average behavior would be different.
