This would be cool if Stacker News was designed to be federated kinda like Lemmy or something. As is, that would be a huge gain for just one person running this site xD
It might be too early to tell but it seems like federations don’t work in practice - they fracture the network effect.

simulating federation in that case could involve “subreddits” on this one site. they would contextualize some micro-economies and make it so not all “reward” goes to this site owner.
maybe subreddit owners get a reward for basically curating / moderating good spaces in that case. idk…
