I'd like a feature that allows users to conduct polls and share results. What do you think?
subs.
oh man i was on non-BTC reddit today and someone responded to a question I had with such a great comment and it literally pained me that I couldn't send him 100+ sats!
reply
Subs don't solve that problem you described.

I would like to talk about other topics with a broader community and see SN eat reddit..
reply
lol that won't happen dude. This is a community for Bitcoiners, with a focus on long form discussions. Like HN.
In fact, the much more likely scenario is that Reddit copies SN and introduces Lightning tips on their platform.
reply
I thought everyone will be a bitcoiner soon? 😜
reply
lol everyone in the developing world, certainly.
reply
Set default tip to 100 sats.
reply
It's easy to accidentally hit the lightning button. Losing one sat is pretty minor, but might put a little more distance between the icon and the title/comment, or give like a 10 second undo window
reply
Undo within a limited short time window not a bad idea although maybe not a high priority. I often accidentally upvote stuff as well. Happens on reddit as well but you can simply undo your upvote at any time (not something i'd want)
reply
lol really?
reply
Yes especially for mobile users like me
reply
I would like to see post type filter, so I can see off-hand if this is a
  • SN Post
  • External article
  • Video embed
  • Twitter post
So I can just go okay I only want to see video posts as an example
I'd like to see some form of curation or categorising, so I can see posts like news, apps, lightning, economics so I can follow certain rabbit holes, could even call it rabbit holes
I would also like the feature of paying sats to add someone to an ignore list, lol some people are worth hiding from my feed
reply
  1. Add GIFs
  2. Meme search just like there is Tenor GIF search, apart from the GIF search like tenor
  3. personal profile page using design of no-code free online app
  4. crowdfunding of ideas and crowdsourcing of tasks and talent, i.e. contests / creative challenges
  5. a million pixels on the screen for sale to the highest bidders, so a billboard like r/place
  6. a youtube like video section
  7. allow easy drag and drop of images, gifs and videos to comments/posts
reply
and of course we need to either have a /pol/ or an r/conspiracy one of the two also here

The ability to create your own news feed by following users.
reply
Why do you want a news feed?
Has everyone been so thoroughly trained by Facebook and Instagram that they can't discover any content for themselves anymore?
reply
It's just an idea
reply
If you put your idea out there, someone might criticize it :)
That's the way of the world buddy. If you don't want to be criticized, say nothing. If you don't want to accomplish great things, say nothing.
And always remember the great quote - don't worry about the critic, focus on being the man in the arena.
reply
It's not a battle I'm willing to fight. Have your way with whatever you take from that
reply
Ability to delete posts/comments
reply
I'ld like to see Advanced Search.
E.g., to filter based on comments or posts (or both) from a specific user, in a specific date range, with a specific keyword (or exact match on a search phrase).
reply
Search is a must I agree
reply
Additional rss feeds. AFAIK it's just the firehose that's available. It's getting unweildy. Maybe top x per day or top x per week feeds would be cool.
Or must exceed x sats to get onto the feed.
reply
I personally like the firehose, because it's easy and simple. But I like your ideas.
reply
really want an iOS app for sn
reply
App stores coerce platforms to police speech. I think it's a bad direction.
reply
had not thought about that when asking for an app. great point. the mobile-web version is 90% good enough anyway
reply
Does Hacker News have polls? No, it doesn't.
Because they just dumb down the discussion. Keeps people from engaging.
If I wanted to tap an icon, I'd tap the lightning icon.
reply
I agree on polls, I don't think they add more to a discussion
reply
отдельный чат комнату! для личных слов! идеи мысли послания.
reply
Nah, opens up too much liability for the founders. Hard to police.
What don't you want to talk about in the open?
reply
Some setting to have a local feed. Like global feed and German feed for example. There are many German bitcoiners who don't speak English and therefore don't use SN
