My biggest thing is that before facebook there was a bulletin board that I posted long messages. Paragraphs were written. Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and my own zine I did in the late 1980s and early 1990s were all about sharing content and I only got paid when I sold the zines in person or had mail orders. On the web from 1997 to 2021 I didn't make anything until I had Stacker News. I love paying to play and then getting zapped when someone likes what I wrote.
Sure there may be some subjects that are not interesting to Stackers but I don't care. On Nostr I like getting zaps too and it's a surprise when I trigger someone and they give me 1000 sats! It's nice to also be able to donate to others who are doing a great job too!
they give me 1000 sats!
This only happens once every few months, but it feels so great!

Exactly! All the twitter likes were nice but when someone gives you a truly scarce asset it makes a big difference. Like all the businesses offering points are just trying to print fiat and we go through so many hoops just to get points when we could just stack bitcoin and beat everyone else. I really love when I see family or friends go after points and totally ignore bitcoin.
