Pretty cool! Indeed, never saw econ research being done, much less so "in public".
Your interpretation resonates with my personal experience.
If I put a lot of effort into a post, I know that the posting fee will be offset by the zaps. And even if it doesn't, I'm just happy to show the work I've done and I'm ready to pay for it.
On the other hand, when I share a simple link with a few quick comments and quotes, it takes me a few minutes, and I look for the cheaper territory to post it. If I don't find any cheap territory, I'd rather not post, as I don't think paying to post for links is worth the same as paying to post for actual POW.
Did you differentiate between the lower effort "link" posts from the higher effort "discussion" posts in your analysis?

One thing that makes me feel very good about this project is that I'm doing it in a way that I've long thought research should be done... in public, with open-source everything. It's my first time doing research like this and it's refreshing. It helps that so far the results have actually come out pretty smoothly haha.

I didn't, but that's a nice idea to try!

I do hope you get at least some messy and confusing results. That'll really help people see how the sausage is made.
