102 sats \ 3 replies \ @LibertasBR 4h \ on: Is 1 sat worth more or less than 1 like? nostr
I understand there's no correlation. Likes are like upvotes, a desire to validate the content with your agreement or even demonstrate a different reaction. Sats are a contribution to the person who made that post; they vary depending on the budget and desire of the contributor, and this is highly variable.
But ,here on Stacker News, some of the ranking is determined by sats. Sats are really our only way of upvoting (or downvoting) posts and comments.
If you see them as different, how would you see that informing how sats get used to rank content on SN?

I focused on Nostr's example. I still have the same understanding, even though we don't have upvotes here, I personally use sats according to the territory, post, comment.
My criteria isn't always exactly how much I liked it. But if I really liked it, I'd give it a lot more sats. You have a valid point.

I wasn't trying to disagree with you. I usually zap a comment or reply someone makes in response to something I post as a way of saying that I read it and appreciate it.
On X, I'll often do the same with a like. But on X I can only ever like a post once, whereas on SN, I can increase the value of my like. It does change how they function a little.
