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.

Some of the best SN related memes:
What really is SN:

SN is wild west saloon:

SN zapping recommended by @Car

SN admins tracking users

SN Saloon doors

SN crossposting on nostr

How the SN saloon is looking in real life:

Car and k00b joking about Darth

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)

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?
reply

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.)

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 :)

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.

reply

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?
reply

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.
