266 sats \ 3 replies \ @SimpleStacker 10h

This really is a microcosm of the attention economy. This wouldn't matter so much if Hot wasn't basically the prime attention allocator.

Even if I set my visibility filter to -1,000, downzapped posts are still effectively invisible to me due to my inability to maintain perfect attention. I'd have to catch them on Recent about the time they're posted. (My other option is to find a comment worth clicking on when I do Recent -> Comments which then helps me find the post.)

Hot and top are broken, recent is the way to go. That’s what I’ve been doing ever since I joined SN.

the prime attention allocator

I had been thinking about this mostly as a problem of how zaps and downzaps work, but it is interesting to wonder about solutions that give stackers different ways to decide how to allocate their attention.

master branch has a -inf filter minimum. I'll deploy it tomorrow

What doesn’t really make sense is a post getting 1,000 up sats from 10 people, and then one person with 333 down sats being able to cancel it out. That needs to be rethought.
