You hear a lot about value for value (aka v4v) in this space. I think it's something that makes sense in theory, but often doesn't click until it happens to you.
Seeing the rewards system go through various experiments has gotten me thinking about my niche in this community. I don't really post a lot of new content - mostly comments on other's posts, chiming in to discussions, etc.
But where I've really found a home is by contributing to SN itself via FOSS work. I feel this is my best way to add value to the ecosystem, at least for the time being. It's extremely satisfying to see folks use the changes that I make as part of SN, alongside the changes of the other engineers. The sats that come in from that work is icing on the cake. I feel this is a tremendous example of v4v.
So anyway, thank you for being here. Thank you for reading this brain dump. And thank you for encouraging others to provide value!
