Any video of your talk?
No, I don't think it was published yet. Spoiler: Stacker News didn't win. It was my fault - my pitch was kind of gimmicky. I made it super concise and to the point ("Stacker News values your attention") in an effort to standout, but I think the judges thought I wasn't taking it seriously. I also have all the social composure and charisma of a person who spends all day on a computer ... and they converted my slides and broke all the formatting so it looked wack.
Plebs said it was good though.

I feel your pain. I got downvoted to hell on reddit for telling people about this site in a gimmicky way. I think it's hard not to sound gimmicky when you're excited about the possibilities of this place. I guess I'll never be done learning.

I got kicked from the r/Bitcoin Discord channel even, immediately after sharing a Stacker News post (about DiscoPay, tipping on Discord).
Which is funny because, in Nov 2010, I was the first person ever to create a post on r/Bitcoin (after the initial Bitcoin whitepaper post they had launched it with).
