Seems like SN is inching towards critical mass—it’s been really fun lately. Great job, @k00b and team.

SN is like the old reddit from 2014 era, before the moon bois and block size drama ruined it.

Yes, I have the same feeling. Only that this time is with sats.

I've really got to sort my life out and remember to crosspost to Nostr when I do the weekly Meta Music Monday.

In Stacker News forums born and raised,

In the Saloon was where I spent most of my days,

Chillin' out, bitcoin maxin', all cool

And sending zaps' some sats outside of the school

When a couple of guys who were up to no good

Started shitcoining here in my neighborhood

I got in one little fight and my mom got scared

She said, "You're not posting silly memes with Siggy, Nemo, Darth and all into thin air…”

(Apologies to the Fresh Prince)

Not just a minimalist blog for bitcoin maximalists ⚡ I see SN as a whole lightning ecosystem. New features are coming???? 👀

449 sats \ 7 replies \ @td 2 Nov 2023

Sn is obviously quite Bitcoin-centric 👍. Are we going to see separate, individual sn-style sites pop up for each subreddit-style group? Will Reddit integrate Lightning?

356 sats \ 0 replies \ @elvismercury 2 Nov 2023

I'm not clear on whether SN itself is going to allow for the creation of different boards as per subreddits, but I'm very confident that eventually there will be a family of sites running the SN software, bc the paradigm is just too good.

The only question (to me) is whether they're under the SN umbrella, as per reddit, or if it's just different people running the same code, as per Discourse. (Or Discord.)

fuck reddit
fuck shitcoins. Bitcoin only

34 sats \ 4 replies \ @td 2 Nov 2023

There exists a world outside Bitcoin and Crypto ;) I might be so bold as to say it's critical for universal adoption. The, say, knitting version of sn will be rewarding each other with Bitcoin and they won't even know or care.

Love the caricature you play, Darth. I like to think that really some tax accountant somewhere trolling everybody by pretending to be the maxiest Maxi 😂

Jokes aside, beneath the knee jerk Maxi rhetoric there is an abundance of hard work and support for the community, so thank you.

Certainly SN team has done a great job ... pretty much a one many show who can ship quickly and quality things ... it has evolved into a few people now .... so hats off to them

As for critical mass, not sure about that ... i mean Bitcoin itself is still niche so imagine SN :)

35 sats \ 0 replies \ @bitcoin_rationalist 2 Nov 2023

This site really is amazing, kudos to the SN team!

... and wait to see when the reddit hoards will find the power of SN. They are still in denial.

30 sats \ 1 reply \ @Zepasta 2 Nov 2023

Fuck Reddit, they can stay on that shithole.

r/Bitcoin it's mostly moon boys and "web 3.0 & blockchain" shitcoiners.

I find it hard to believe that genuine Bitcoineres still haven't come across SN yet, or if they have, i doupt they would choose Reddit over SN.

The power of SN is its users and the team never tend to listen to them

some user feedback would be nice but maybe we need hidden replies for that first or DMs

We could probably toast successful delete command in this case

10 sats \ 1 reply \ @ek 2 Nov 2023

ohhh, good idea! but will be interesting how to communicate this back to the client

227 sats \ 0 replies \ @WeAreAllSatoshi 2 Nov 2023

We could set a flag on the item that indicates delete scheduled. We could also just parse for delete directives client side since it’s a common JS function, though that’s not a guarantee it was successfully scheduled

I can't quite interpret the Github stream -- does that mean that DMs are pending, via NIP 44? What's the relation btwn the two?

162 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek 2 Nov 2023

Ah yes, there isn't a lot of discussion in the Github ticket but we discussed internally that we want to use NIP-44 for DMs. So yes, DMs are waiting for NIP-44 to get audited.
