Do you know which auth method they used?
And btw, new users have to pay 1000 sats for new posts
How do you get to this number? Doesn't it depend on territory and if they allow free posts?
Bottom right. Shows 1,000 sats

Oh, interesting, the fee for ~bitcoin is supposed to be 100 sats:
We use exponential fees against spam so consecutive posts within 10m cost 10x more than the last. Could be that you posted your bio within 10m before your post, will check 👀
There is an info icon next to the button where the fee should be explained when you post. Can you check if it's still 1k sats for you? This is what it says for me in ~bitcoin:

Nope, it's 100 now. I posted a bio and then immediately copy pasted my markdown text into a bitcoin discussion post. So that's what it was.

Ah ok, maybe we should exclude bios from spam detection. Your use case makes sense and is not spam! lol
I'll reimburse you on the post :)

Thank you for looking into this. Did you find something weird about invite links?

Invites claimed with LN and nostr have been weird for some time but the error you mentioned sounds new:
I had a guy joining to SN with an invite link from me and he said that got a black screen with an error with something about "was true".
We only had problems with detecting new users to reward the referee but signup should work fine.

Yeah signup with LN authentication was great. It was just the referral link that broke.

Ah ok, then it's a known bug. Sorry for all the issues you already had, but still welcome to SN lol
We might switch to ask users on or after signup if they were referred. I don't like the referral links anyway. They make links look less genuine imo.
Wow thanks! I didn't know of that mechanism at the time of posting. Definitely excluding bios would be smart. Thanks @ek

hehehe there are many tricks on SN. You will learn them slowly. Here is one for you, as new member: a long press on the zap bolt and you can choose the amount of sats. Also in your profile settings you can set default amount.

I used LNauth with Zeus, and to post a new discussion the invoice was 1,000 sats
