Glad to have more utility than ETH

I was considering making a SN account that posted all new issues and PRs in the SN repo so people could follow along. So many fun ideas!

Join the bot army of @hn and @unpaywall :)
I have thought about the same but then I thought more complicated where even every comment will be posted as a reply to the issue or PR post on SN.
However, you couldn't sync edits after the 10min timer ran out. So maybe just posts?
But then I was thinking that sometimes, you don't want to post immediately to SN but after the issue is polished, the PR has interesting changes now etc.
Also, posting every ticket could mean that an "attacker" could drain the funds of a SN bot which automatically posts everything immediately from Github to SN by just creating a lot of tickets quickly.
Much to consider there so I didn't :)

Yea, I considered a lot of that, too. Perhaps some built in throttling to avoid getting the wallet drained. And maybe just a link to every PR/Issue/comment to get the latest since we can’t keep updating for edits. Also maybe just when a PR is merged so we know it’s more prepared for folks to see.
Just some thoughts in passing :)

Maybe make use of the satellite.earth api's?
They're pretty cheap and <200 sats per gig

AWS S3: $0.023 / GB / month satellite.earth: $0.05 / GB / month
excluding costs to migrate to something else since we already use AWS S3 for avatars and AWS in general for infrastructure

Blackblaze has really cheap ( $0,006/GB/month ) S3 compatible storage: https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing I'm using it some projects and works well.

I like that there are fees for uploading images. That seems like a feature that most sites wouldn't be able to use to sustain themselves, but SN can because of the built in V4V structure.
