It feels like stacker.news is becoming more and more addictive. This suggests that they use motivational engineering to improve retention and the time a user is glued to the screen.
Its a smaaaall club. And you are in it.

Because it helps me stack sats😘

Because it stimulates our brain to seek out good content. And the reward in satoshis is directly proportional to the dopamine produced. Dopamine is addictive.

We don't do any dark art stuff like that nor do we plan to. I don't like products that do that so why would I put another one into the world?

Because the best minds on the planet earth are here. No censorship. And a value for value monetization model. No mods banning users or deleting posts.
Unlike Reddit.

@k00b is a diabolical manipulator. We are all just mindless puppets.

We all know the phrase "... Bitcoin fix it". stackerNews is a great example where Bitcoin fixed spam, empty topics, collect great community around it, and gifted hope for the next day

Because you zap like a mad man, post some crap, find a cowboy hat and the next day your stack has ballooned bigger than a Central Banker's Ego when he keeps inflation at 2%.

Can you elaborate on the cowboy hat part?
reply
It's a gamification layer built into SN. "Finding" a cowboy hat is pretty easy.
Spend a bunch of sats today zapping posts and see what happens.
I've given you everything you need to find one.
reply
Yes, found one, still don't know what is it:)
reply
It's just a little game reward that means nothing. It only takes a day to lose so...
reply
Did you find one?
reply
Haha, that's a vivid and amusing way to put it
reply
It's the people. Cheers 🍻
