Thanksgiving on the Timechain

Thanksgiving isn’t really a thing where I’m from… at least not the turkey-stuffed American version. But gratitude? Yeah, that translates anywhere. And today I’m feeling it heavy.

So, as I'll be a bit busy with my project, shared here: #1267778, which it's about to launch on Geyser, I wish to express my gratitude for the SN community.

This year, I’m thankful for something a lot of people outside our freedom don’t really get:
the SN Territories — those weird, brilliant, chaotic frontiers where we stackers wander like nomads of the timechain, dropping memes, wisdom, shitposts, charts, poetry, code, and the occasional existential crisis.

Every territory has its own personality.
Some feel like a quiet late-night IRC channel (~tech, ~devs, ~bitdevs).
Some feel like a rowdy village market (~AGORA, ~Memes, ~lol, ~gaming).
Some feel like a mastery where monks argue about value and energy (~bitcoin, ~bitcoin_beginners, ~econ, ~bitcoin_Mining).
And some feel like living in the comments section of a science documentary narrated by a drunk wizard (~AI, ~aliens_and_UFOs, ~oracle).

And I’m grateful for all of them:

~bitcoin
~Stacker_Sports
~econ
~lightning
~meta
~builders
~AMA
~Politics_And_Law
~BooksAndArticles
~privacy
~AskSN
~tech
~Music
~HealthAndFitness
~bitcoin_beginners
~nostr
~jobs
~bitcoin_Mining
~charts_and_numbers
~Photography
~art
~events
~gaming
~culture
~AI
~science
~AGORA
~security
~podcasts
~Stacker_Stocks
~mostly_harmless
~bitdevs
~devs
~Design
~Memes
~Animal_World
~Education
~the_stacker_muse
~crypto
~movies
~oracle
~aliens_and_UFOs
~Construction_and_Engineering
~lol
~Travel
~food_and_drinks
~DIY
~Geyser_community
~tutorials
~videos
~Cartalk
~mempool
~Christianity
~relationships
~hyperlinks
~dotnet
~flying

Every territory is a little corner where someone is building, sharing, teaching, bantering, or just trying to figure it out.

But the real reason SN feels like home?
The people.
The stackers who show up every day and make this weird orange cyber-village actually feel alive.

Massive gratitude to the folks who’ve encouraged me, challenged me, inspired me, orange-pilled me harder, or simply made SN feel less like a website and more like a living campfire around which the whole world gathers:

@k00b, @ek, @sox, @DarthCoin, @Undisciplined, @Justin_shocknet, @siggy47 — and the long, wild caravan of stackers who keep this place buzzing:

If I missed you, blame my brain, not my gratitude.


So yeah… Happy Thanksgiving, stackers.

Thanks for the sats, the debates, the inspiration, the late-night dopamine hits, the orange wisdom, the chaos, the memes, the code, the stories, the push to be better, and the reminder every single day that Bitcoin isn’t just code — it’s people's power.

See you in the comments.
⚡🧡

Thanks for the shoutout. We should all be grateful to be part of such an awesome community.

I feel much the same way. SN is still small enough that each stacker makes an impression and changes the flavor of the whole place.

reply

I worry this will be lost if this site gets massive amount of users (100,000 and up)

reply

We’re already to the point where I’m out of touch with the vibe in a bunch of territories

I think between 2x and 10x will still feel like SN

reply

I do it for the stackers the lightning junkies

reply

I've never heard "lightning junkies" before.

reply

Was a podcast a long time ago

I love it

reply

bro tagged the entire plattform 😆

Lol came here to share this sentiment!

I appreciate this place too, it’s way more positive than other places on the internet. I end up here more often than Reddit, trying to get off 4chan but that black hole keeps sucking me back in

reply

Thanks for the tag. Put a smile on my face

reply

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone celebrating it!
