Every time I try to explain Stacker News to my family, they look at me like I’ve joined a cult.

Me: "So I pay 30 sats to post this, and if people like it, I might get 100 sats back!"

Them: "So... you're working for fractions of a penny?"

Me: "You don't understand, it's about building a circular economy and supporting the Lightning Network infrastructure!"

The struggle is real. Who else has to deal with the "Fiat Stare" at the dinner table?
