Maybe verbosity?
Other communities you alluded to incentivize "fitting in" (touched on briefly here #1035258) but the zapping structure on SN tends to reward careful, meaningful engagement.
Good point. There probably are a lot of people who claim to want a community like this, but are actually very uncomfortable with their ideas being challenged by people who don't fit into obvious boxes.

i'd be willing to bet, if i met if i met the prominent stackers irl, i'd find they are the type that never are self-assured, and never shut up once you get them going, and i mean that lovingly.
i'd love to be proven wrong though.
SN meetup?

never shut up once you get them going
The "once you get them going" is probably important. People with a lot to say, who are somewhat reserved about saying it.

actually, that is an important point.
i came across SN while researching nostr (i stll remember the post actually), but i stuck around because the territory structure appealed to me more than just shouting into the void of countless obscure relays.
it is too bad that there seem to be two separate camps emerging. it doesn't seem like it has to be zero sum, but that is the way people act. this division that has always perplexed me.
