Yes, this is an ad experiment being run by Stacker News.
For one month, Federated Computer will be the exclusive advertiser on the @ad account, though you may see modifications to the copy periodically.
Also worth noting, Federated Computer's ad budget goes directly to the Stacker News daily rewards pool every day, and currently represents a large majority of all daily rewards.
eh I rarely get rewards. not popular enough.

nope. last time i got any site rewards was jun 21. before that was in april.

Rewards only go to zappers currently. So if you aren't zapping you won't get rewards.

I zap, but not as freely as many others.

Fair! Zapper only rewards is just an experiment so hopefully we’ll run a future experiment where your behaviors are rewarded too.

Yesterday the rewards pool paid 184,412 sats to all the best zappers on Stacker News.
The rewards algorithm as it stands today rewards zapping good content (early zaps and large zaps benefit more), though we plan to run more experiments in the coming weeks.
