Found this nice little 3 year old flashback on /r/investing from when BTC crashed to $3,700 from $20k a year prior:

Just noticed that SN is showing the bitcoin price as sats per dollar I'm loving it... The sats standard is the future...
reply
might just be me but SN is the first place I check when I need to do quick sats/dollar math

Very exciting week this week I take another step into the Bitcoin Nether slowly transitioning out of the fiat worlds model of the standard 9-5 M-F none the less I'm excited to be able to attend more bitcoin events and able to be around bitcoiners more often

@k00b strange thing happen. If I login to SN with lnurl using my own node, I get different account. If I login by copying the lnurl into Thunderhub, I get the usual account. If I login by copying the lnurl into Zeus (same node), I get another account (new one). I tried scanning with Zeus the QR code and also after hardly trying to scan it, it authorize it but is a new account.
reply
They might all be deriving the auth keypair differently.
Zeus gives you different accounts depending on whether it was a scan or a copy and paste?
reply
Zeus gives me same new account. Thunderhub gives me always same account (this one). Is the same node that signs.
reply
It's not your node, but the software (ThunderHub, Zeus, etc) that derives the keypair from your node key. Zeus and ThunderHub probably implement lnurl-auth differently. They shouldn't but it sounds like they do.
reply
Indeed, Evan confirm it. TH is using other signing endpoint.
reply
This is happening a lot. Apparently Alby and lndhub have similar issues.
reply
Do you think I should raise the question to Zeus guys or is normal behavior this?
reply
I would raise to Zeus. It's not normal behavior

๐Ÿ—น Search ban ? Ghost ban ? Reply Deboosting
Happened to notice the search ban starting yesterday after trying to find a Tweet that was on the SN front page. The Tweet exists, it just doesn't appear when searching Twitter for either the URL or for a phrase from the Tweet.
Is there no way to know why, and nothing that can be done?
reply
I don't know about this specific shadow ban - but I know that Twitter automatically flags a lot of things as bots/misleading etc. E.g. Michael Bloomberg is one of the fastest and reliable source for flash news. But Twitter flagged him for shadow search ban - probably because of the all caps.
Rumors from my stock market friends bubble say that it is because Twitter is secretly preparing to launch a search engine that integrates web crawling, topic-hashtag pages and famous people profiles for a year now. Idk if there is any truth to this.
