I'm pretty confident that @Meani123 has stacked more than 129 sats.

What's up Undisciplined. Got this mention, 129 sats comment? I'm lost 😅😅 lol. Did I win something? Lfg!!

22 sats \ 0 replies \ @Meani123 5 Mar

Oh I see now. Yes I have stacked way more than 129 sats. Am I getting robbed of a trophy or something? 😱

29 sats \ 2 replies \ @ek OP 10 Mar

Will be fixed in the next post. Thanks for mentioning it! Not sure I would have noticed. I missed that by default, our API only returns the last 21 posts, not all posts and comments. I had to include type: "all" and limit: 999 in the request.

21 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined 10 Mar

How would you catch something like that, unless you were pretty sure you had zapped the stacker more?

42 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek OP 12 Mar

Just by coincidence. I might have randomly clicked into a profile while I am creating the post and notice that the number for 'stacked' is very different than the number in my table.

173 sats \ 3 replies \ @billytheked 5 Mar

Thanks for the mention!

How did you find out about SN?

I believe I did a Google search on a nostr topic and came to a nice guide here.

How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback?

Not hard at all. Compared to Lightning, it was a breeze

How much experience do you have with lightning?

Novice user but I've got a node set up now with a few public channels

Have you read the FAQ already?

Yes, very detailed and thorough. I appreciate the privacy tips

Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats?

👍

10 sats \ 0 replies \ @Meani123 5 Mar

I learned about Sn through my friend @kurszusz. And I'm thrilled and enjoying my time here so far. Many interesting and smart people here and super helpful and friendly. Been a joy so far. Shout-out to my new friends that spend their precious time answering my questions and actually reading my **** 😅😅🤣🤣

node with public channels doesn't sound like a novice though 👀

Yes, very detailed and thorough. I appreciate the privacy tips

Thank you! With privacy tips, you mean like to disable referral links by default?

21 sats \ 0 replies \ @billytheked 12 Mar

... privacy tips

I think somewhere in there there's a point made about using an anon account for general browsing 😉

133 sats \ 1 reply \ @SterlingBolivar 6 Mar

How did you find out about SN? I cannot remember. After lurking for about six months, I decided I should participate. I just posted my first piece.

How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback? Lightning is tricky, but this is part of the fun!

How much experience do you have with lightning? I have Alby Hub and will open a channel with SN.

Have you read the FAQ already? Yes.

Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats? Yes.

Thank you for checking in.

Awesome!

Make sure to open a private channel if you don’t want other nodes to route payments through it.

Thank you for checking in.

No worries, thanks for replying and welcome!

173 sats \ 4 replies \ @rottenwheel 5 Mar

How did you find out about SN?

I don't remember. I believe I was linked to ~monero's territory by its creator and one thing lead to another, Primal, Nostr, stacker.news, the standard. :D

How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback?

Not difficult at all. Experience and set-up is seamless, desktop and mobile. No recommendations or areas for improvement from me, at least.

How much experience do you have with lightning?

Pretty much none; have only ever used custodial, because I treat it as my day-to-day wallet, where I'd keep less than I can afford to lose, to pay for small purchases or monthly subscriptions, nothing big.

Have you read the FAQ already?

Yes, the very first reply I got to my bio when it went live was the FAQs, haha.

Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats?

Yes, on the first day. Linked Primal's wallet to stacker.news by simply typing my lightning address that looks like an e-mail address and that was it. Seamless plug-n-play.

I've got a question! What is the sat standard value on the table above? What does it stand for? Mine reads 0.94, what does that even mean? Good, bad?

Thanks.

100 sats \ 2 replies \ @Hodl117 5 Mar

It's the ratio of sats to CCs you've received. See Baby Stacker Corner #3.

7 sats \ 0 replies \ @ek OP 6 Mar

Thanks! I should mention this in every post since it's definitely confusing.

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @rottenwheel 5 Mar

I added separate stats for sats and credits and a 'sat standard' column. The closer it is to 1, the more sats instead of ccs they received (see also #865727). I see, thanks. Cheers.

I don't remember how I found this but I was searching something releated to nostr and found this. It was smooth to get started without any issues , if you ask how much experience I have in lightning , I can confidently say I have preety good experience with lightning . Yeah I have read the FAQ. Yes , Actually I created the account months ago and was actually busy with my life , so today when I got time I decided to check it out again. This is a nice platform .

Thanks for the welcome!

How did you find out about SN?

I don't remember how I found out about SN. I've been lurking around for a while. I remember seeing links on X, but I don't remember if that was my first exposure.

How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback?

Not difficult. There are a lot of options in Settings, which I can see how it could be overwhelming. But personally, I like the customizability.

How much experience do you have with lightning?

Quite a bit

Have you read the FAQ already?

Yes

Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats?

Yes, I think SN was pretty clear on that.

Thank you for your reply!

100 sats \ 6 replies \ @_Bubble_2009 5 Mar

Many thanks for mention, and also for those question, for me is a pleasure reply.

How did you find out about SN?

I'm not sure, but I landed here looking for a place to talk about various things without spam or trivial, nonsensical answers. It is possible that you have come across here looking for very specific information on the Monero proxy or on a ligthing node. After that I discovered the beautiful photographic section.

How difficult was it to get started? Any feedback?

For me was really easy start, but frankly speaking, I was searching for an onion site to have more privacy, but, as u can see in the attachment, for me is impossible use the onion version of this site.

Maybe it's my fault, but I couldn't find an official app on F-Droid to operate from a phone.

How much experience do you have with lightning?

Honestly not too much, but I've been interested in this layer for a long time, so I'm not completely fasting.

Have you read the FAQ already?

Sure, I've read the 1st time before register my account, and then I've read them a couple more time

Have you realized that you need to attach a wallet to receive sats?

Sure, but here I've some trouble with this. I've a LN node under umbrella, but I want to abandon this system to create a node from scratch on an HP Microserver Gen 6 with Debian. The BTC node has been working for some time, the lighting node is taking longer to become operational. The hope is to clarify some doubts thanks to these pages. The ready-to-go solutions you propose all have something that does not satisfy me. In time I will resolve this point as well.

Thanks for all.

Did you read that @TNStacker? 👀

Oh yes, our onion site is very unreliable, sorry, we will fix it in time. 🙈

We don't have an app you can install from an app store, only a progressive web app (PWA). It should have prompted you to install the PWA though. Did it not?

I don't like 3th parts app, I prefer use official APP or have access from browser

Hi there, sometime i wrote some bad answers in the photography section, I hope you can understand that I try to make constructive criticism. I am a very amateur photographer, with little practice, but many studies in this regard. I hope to be able to continue collaborating.

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @TNStacker 6 Mar

Bad answers? Please contribute. Constructive criticism is welcomed by me. I certainly give it. However, the last thing I want to do is discourage collaboration.

Far be it from me to discourage. However, I have seen reportage or urban photos, defined as street ph and I wanted to clarify. Same thing, I gave my opinion on the wedding photos, I hope the op were not offended. I try to only give constructive criticism, but due to my poor English, other user may not understand each other.

One thing I like is being able to log in using nos2x browser add-on via your nostr nsec in a secure way, while also allowing for you to show in your profile, your npub, in case someone who visits your profile's interested in checking your social profile elsewhere, or get ahold of you some other way. Convenient. I appreciate the lightning and content overlap between stacker.news and nostr.

I came to know about SN through Twitter, specifically via James Lopp’s Twitter channel.
I’m very happy to be part of SN. However, during my exploration, I encountered some very inappropriate comments on my page. These comments came from @DarthCoin
I’d like to ask about his role at SN and why he frequently uses the term "shitcoining" to label those around him, including myself.

0 sats \ 12 replies \ @DarthCoin 7 Mar

Just by using the words "web3" and "blockchain technology" shows that you are a shitcoiner. No remorse for shitcoiners.
