Isn’t the idea of rewards woven through the whole tapestry of Stacker News?
Exactly but I was curious if my perception of Stacker News aligns with the perception of others here.
Also, this would only be opt-in. Rewards won't disappear unless literally everyone opts-out but that case would mean no one wants them anyway. Only stackers that want rewards would fund rewards. It's a "freedom-increasing" feature.
Again, I ask, how many stackers to you think would desert the platform with the reward incentives removed? An awful lot of people work on the basis of “what’s in it for me”. Those might be the ones that desert the ship. Wouldn’t the quality and quantity of discussions degrade? The does not sound like fun. BTW, there are stackers that do not give rewards to respondents or original posters. Could they already be operating on those principles?
Again, zen mode would only be opt-in and only affect your individual experience.
Ok, I understand! It woluld be optional for each individual as they chose.
Exactly
Incentives? Kill incentives? What kind of idea is that? How many stackers are you willing to loose. You could go to X or Buttbook and do something like it. Isn’t the idea of rewards woven through the whole tapestry of Stacker News? To rewrite the code may be a bit tedious.
