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.
