I stated in my bio that I had been a long time lurker, but I actually can't recall where I heard about SN. It must have been a bitcoin/LN guide that I clicked a link for from somewhere.

Signing up was easy using login with lightning and I already had sats ready to use. What got me to finally make an account was because I wanted to test NWC with Alby Hub and SN was the app I wanted to try with most.

There was some confusion with sending credentials with NWC, which was answered here (#821817). I was also confused that the sats amounts received by my wallet was lower than the zapped amount but I was able to find an answer here (#692153). Once I understood the purpose of fees, seeing how well my first post was received, and receiving some sats from the rewards pool, I was able to understand the sats flow and see how it promotes good posting. Now I wish I signed up earlier and been an active user because you don't really grasp the economics and the power of SN fully as a lurker.
