21 sats \ 2 replies \ @TheWildHustle 5 Dec \ on: No leaderboard, No daily rewards ! meta
I like the rewards and leaderboard. (Although I rarely check the leaderboard.
I see SN as a way to earn bitcoin for insightful comments and valuable posts, similar to nostr.
If the rewards and gamified elements didn't exist, I would still use SN, but probably wouldn't post as much. I probably fall into the assmilker category.......
People use SN for different reasons, my reasons might not be entirely pure. I want to earn sats. I love the community and have made great online friends and have been motivated and really encouraged to do things here. But at the end of the day I'm here as an earner (assmilker). I want to create posts that generate a lot of sats, I want to cross post to nostr so that people click on the link and give me the referral bonus. I enjoy looking at the daily rewards and showing TheWildWife my spoils of victory.
Not sure how I should handle this personality defect of mine.
Touch grass? Continue my greedy activities, but with a twinge of shame?
Advice is welcome.
Should I see SN as a way to earn bitcoin for posting valuable content, or should I see SN as a platform for the professional and erudite to reveal wisdom......or something else?
Don't worry, you will still get sats for good stuff. But those will be p2p zaps from those that appreciate your content.
The thing I want to point out is that the actual system is exactly like free shit a socialist gov is using to fool people into paying taxes, to have "free shit".
Removing the leaderboard and daily rewards it makes that "free shit" goes away and only those that merit get The Real Shit (sats). Make it harder for assmilkers to earn "free shit".
Right now I feel like I am working hard to do my job and paying taxes so a dumb ass staying in the couch all days, just grab a nice retribution from "the gov" as "a reward" for voting nively.

Understandable.
