40 sats \ 8 replies \ @Undisciplined 10 Jan \ parent \ on: The Return of SN Foundry??? meta
Ok, what do you think is the best case to make to other writers to get them to try out Stacker News?
What was your sales pitch to @denlillaapan?
I told him he could get zapped for what he already does. He already contributes to Mises and AIER and Reason. He already tweets and Nostr notes. He already get a couple zaps on Nostr
But I said here he’d get zapped heavy and he seems to really like that.
I also told him that here he would get the highest compliment a writer could get. That not only would ppl repost or zap, but they might actually read what he wrote and give an interesting comment maybe
He’s posted before his skepticism of SN success once the rewards pool stops getting 100k sats of daily funding.

The sats, perhaps, but maybe actually the "...people actually read" weighs heaviest

"People actually read and interact" was my pitch to the folks at Minds, but I didn't get any takers. Some left for nostr, but none came here that I'm aware of.
I think some people like shouting into the void and don't want to hear the responses they might get.

I think you are right. Some people just want to post like it is their personal diary and "people actually read and interact" sounds frightening and exhausting to them.

Publishing my book my wife was afraid of it being a runaway success and all the publicity and paparazzi that’d be crowding outside our house!
Babe, that’s the dream! 😅

Who could have imagined that you'd be getting invited onto sports podcasts?

It’s easy when you’re for the Rams but the hosts like Raiders and 49ers. Gotta teach em how football works
