Well curated! This week's been amazing. I especially liked @plebpoet post about Farm. I'm feeling big on motivation. When I could farm on a large scale, I'll also do the same.
reply
My first week and I already made top Meta! Awesome!!
Looks like @grayruby and @Undisciplined cracked the code. Despite being some of this weeks top spenders, they stacked more than they spent!

You have to spend money to make money.

Not in my case, I won Fun Fact in 1 Sat.
reply
I will give 1 sat to you sir xD
reply
Thanks Look you got 10 times more.

I don't do fun with my Sats. They are precious.

You think those sats on the blockchain are yours? Prove your ownership by sending them to me 😈
Good work, if you can get it.

I usually try to spend as much as I stack.

STACK HARDER!

@k00b, why aren't you on the Top Cowboy list?
You were pretty adamant with @Car about having earned your spot.
reply
I filter myself out. I'd be on the top of all the lists most weeks which is lame.
reply
That seems pretty badass to me. I'd actually enjoy it if you and @ek got un-nerfed so that we could have a fair contest.

It wouldn't be fair though. We have extra incentives.
reply
If you believe that your rewards system incentivizes positive contributions, wouldn't those extra incentives still manifest in beneficial behavior.
I'm pretty sure that some of us will still regularly beat @ek.
@siggy47 (presumably) and I are the only ones who will really be negatively impacted by you going full force. Give us a challenge and give yourselves stronger incentives to contribute.

Hmmm I should at least un-nerf @ek. I did start earning revenue for my territories recently and that's pretty nice (although I never "paid" for them either).
Before we nerfed kr and I, we'd always be at the top.
reply
It doesn't make a ton of sense for you to pay for them, since that just goes right back to you.
reply
But do you? It’s FOSS. Do you take a salary from the fees? Who is hosting the servers SN runs on?

We have VC funding so we pay ourselves with that. We have a bit of revenue from territories but we are super duper far from being profitable.

Yeehaw 🤠

Thanks for the newsletter The biggest highlight is @Scoresby that's a legendary post. All top posts are good, but he took it to another level.
reply
This week's been so full of knowledge and fun. The post by @final and @plebpoet are my favourite (buy we have some NSFW by @Scoresby, we can read it alone)
