240 sats \ 2 replies \ @cryotosensei 8 Sep \ on: Why do you use SN? and other questions AskSN
A user called @HattyHats blogged about SN on a writing platform called Publish0x. Posted on and off, but became a regular poster/commentator when I realised that people here type long-form responses (which I like)
I’m surprised no one else mentioned the cowboy hat because the will to hold on to it is fuel for me to make my appearance here every day.
I like that I understand more about the world, thanks to the different perspectives and lived experiences from Stackers. It makes my pedestrian life a bit more exciting and meaningful haha. I never cease to be amazed at how different Stackers come to similar conclusions about life based on their different paths. This universality to me is mind-boggling and attractive.
I am motivated to post here as a result of different motivations:
- to declutter my papers and photos (using SN as a repository of my experiences)
- as a journal (to not let the daily moments slip by)
- as a sounding board (I don’t mind unburdening myself in front of friends and making myself vulnerable, but it isn’t always the case that my friends can be there for me when I most need a listening ear. I find that SN fulfills my need to be seen and heard in those pivotal moments)
- the sats I accumulate here go straight to my beer and snacks fund, courtesy of Bitrefill. What’s not to like about beer and snacks?
Thanks for the questions! Fun to answer
