I just went back to Satsoverflow dot io. I like the general concept but not a big fan of how payments are implemented. I do not care about the money but intend to regularly spend time on these plattforms to support them.

Anyway, I wasn't able to submit payments for answering (no inbound liquidity) nor able to withdraw to create inbound liquidity (failed to send withdrawal payment: "Send Payment failure: "insufficient_balance".").

So, if they not even keep their node running .. is the site dead?

I saw an eight days ago post so I feel the platform lack engagement but it will pick up when the team works towards bringing more awareness

Of course it will lack engagement with that shitty business model. Who wants to pay for something one has not seen?

The site owner presented the idea here, we provided the feedback and he tried to argue about it. The thing when you're building a product is that you should take feedback from both paying and potential customers, not try to push your ideas.

Why write the url? https://satsoverflow.io/

It's probably just been soft abandoned/neglected. I know the builder.

IMO the service's incentive design is not ideal.

Stacker.news can easily replace it.

I like that someone made it, but it had some issues in how it actually worked.

https://soldirac.com is another ones of those sites, I think it's still somewhat active.

I sometimes look at soldirac but I never find questions that not have answers yet.

Also, a lot of questions are by their founder ... it feels like a plane that is really fast on the runway and almost fast enough to take of but not quite enough to take of.

I think they could have done a new brand. TBH it feels like a rip-off with the same layout and style. Stackoverflow is already ancient so is ripe for a new approach and a new look and feel.
