1080 sats \ 14 replies \ @Undisciplined 10 May \ on: My First Experience About SN meta
Welcome aboard! I'm glad you're already seeing how special SN is.
When I started using Stacker News, I didn't quite get it. I was sharing links to anything and everything even remotely Bitcoin related: basically the same firehose approach that works on other social media.
I realized eventually that the high quality engagement is what's special here, so I started writing more comments and putting more thought into them. My early discussion posts were mostly me asking questions that interested me and that I thought people here would have interesting perspectives on.
Now, the communities become pretty diverse, so I'd recommend just writing about whatever you feel like writing about. Don't feel like you have to do anything in particular though.

Oh so you were one of "those people". I think I made a post once telling people to stop zapping and encouraging people that are just sharing links and videos with no context. What an arrogant ass I am. Oh well too old to change now.

I needed to hear it. Whether it was you or not, seeing that sentiment expressed got me to adjust what I was doing here.

I think you and I started posting on SN around the same time.

You were first to get the point by more than that though.

I don't remember saying anything notable early on other than posting about how sats I was stacking in early 2023 until some OG stackers suggested it wasn't a good idea to do that.

Oh! So there are links that insee sometimes get noticed more. So, posting links is also a way to be in the groove?

If you're going to post links, which I still do plenty of, it's much better to add some context or thoughts of your own. Links by themselves, especially from a stacker you don't know well, don't usually get much traction.
