I'll never forget the day I got orange pilled and joined Stacker News. My friend talked to me about how reliable and verifiable SN community is.
The moment I landed on the site, I knew I had found a new home for my love of freedom. The community welcomed me with sats, and I quickly realized how SN is the best V4V platform. Stacker News has become a valuable resource for me, and I am grateful for the day I became part of the community.
I don't remember the exact day - but I remember starting my first streak 22 days ago. I am having a ton of fun with this, and not looking back!
When I first started stacker news I think I was very high time preference-oriented and didn't get any zaps/community discussion so I left.
I gave it another try, with the mindset of giving and it has been great ever since :)
I do remember it, because I checked out SN after listening to a Fountain ad for it. I didn't immediately appreciate how special it was, although I did like it right away.
I remember these ads too. @k00b, bring back SN fountain ads!
Maybe that’s the way I found stacker news. Or Reddit or hacker news
Do you want to get in on my 2025 NBA contest?
Of course

I remember how it happened but not much more. I was experimenting with Nostr zaps and looked at @ODELL's LNURL address and it was a SN address. I had never heard of SN before this. I signed up and the rest is history.
Odell was an early stacker. He also came out on SNL #30

Joining Stacker News is one of the best things I ever did. I'm very grateful.

Sure do. About three or so years ago now. Back when this place was essentially a ghost town. Things were simple then, right @k00b?
💯
I also remember the day when I redirected my way to SN through another site. I ont say that it was my orange piling moment but a turning point. All thanks to @cryotosensei. I was going through one of his articles elsewhere and there was this link to SN. After coming to SN, I had not been to any other platform, nor I require them anymore.
I don't remember the day but I do remember seeing a link to it, thinking "this looks really interesting" (and sorely needed), then going to sign up (using my personal nym) only to find out I had already signed up months earlier, then must have forgotten about it. Been a huge fan ever since!!
Hell yeah, I was in here 14+ hours or sumthin hahaha
Same as the past few days, after finally deciding that I'll go full in on content creation plus related stuff 100%, of course with earning in Bitcoin as the top priority :-)
Do you mean to say you were orange pilled and joined SN at the same time?
Yes, I wince a little bit every time I read my "stacking since" item on my popover hahaha
Not really. I know when it was becuase it is on my bio but I don’t really remember that day. I do remember seeing someone repost an SN tweet on Twitter and thought “what’s this let me try it out”
I don't remember it clearly, I remember that I joined thanks to a Bitcoin podcaster.
No, I don't remember that.

It was easier to get sats when I joined
Oh yeah, it was not as hard.
