I agree. It feels so good to be hear. This is special people in a special place. 

Neither nostr or tacker news existed yet.  It changes everything to have an awesome way reason to have a node.

Absolutely, DesertDave, Stacker News has brought Bitcoin to life for me. NOSTR also but mostly Stacker News. It makes having the tools worth the effort as I spent over 20 years on digital platforms spilling my guts with nonsense and wisdom.  Here it's an active party. I love it!  I also feel like the hosts of Stacker are not just using me nor am I just using them. We are paying to play and the value of the running platform makes it very valuable.

I am zapping directly from my node to stacker posts now.  It feels so good.
