Now no one will use them and embarrass the hell out of me.

Big use for me is to add an addendum to a post, especially if I've stated something that I've changed my mind on. Another is if someone adds valuable context whether or not it is popular. This has a lot of utility.

Very true. I didn't think through all the use cases. Great

Its a pattern on many apps and when you mentioned it I was really wishing I had it on one of my posts about ETFs because the stackers shifted my thinking.

Pinned posts create a perverse situation, making it impossible to zap the original poster. It would only make sense to allow pinning after 24 hours if the original poster is not the same as the territory owner ? @sn

Mhh, you're right. I marked it as "MVP feature creep" in the PR:

~~[ux] allow pinned items to get zapped (requesting for comments, optional)~~ MVP feature creep, let's get some user feedback first

But I was imagining pins to be used mainly content that already got old when I was thinking about it. Also, the UX around zapping wasn't obvious to me. But I guess I'll just allow zapping by clicking the pin icon as if it would be a zap icon.

It would only make sense to allow pinning after 24 hours if the original poster is not the same as the territory owner ?

I guess that's just a bandaid. I'll just add zapping

you are right. In regard to the icon, could it be a new one that had the pin and the bolt

Should pinned posts be included in the home feed (hot, recent, and top)?

0 sats \ 3 replies \ @ek fwd 30 Jan

No, they are limited to territory feeds.

Wouldn't make sense to include them in the home feed since territory pins would conflict.

Or were you saying something different?

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @0xbitcoiner 30 Jan

Pinned posts could be treated as a normal post on the home feed (hot, recent, and top). I don't know if you noticed, but if the territory owner pins a post immediately after it is published, the OP will never be able to be zapped.

Oh, now I get what you mean. I assumed that would be the case but I think that's not the case. Pinning might indeed prevent them from showing up in the home feed (even as unpinned items). Thanks for the notice! Will check.

Isn't this the same question we had here?

Currently working on a fix

yes

Is this supposed to be like this?

66 sats \ 3 replies \ @ek fwd 30 Jan

You mean that the pin icon shows up? Mhh, kind of. I can see that it's confusing but I thought it would also be confusing to now show it.

I will change it to only show in the territory hot feed (where it actually has a fixed position). In posts, pins are always fixed (no matter the sorting).
