💯 it’s far worse than you think. Always going to keep it real, one of the few that does.
Am I over the target with the motivation?
reply
No stay the mission.
SN is far too important for it to fail because of “perceived” competition by the stackers.
When you are great at something, unique and better than anything’s else that’s come before nothing can stop it. It becomes inevitable.
That’s what I believe.

I believe that too. I was wondering if I was in the ballpark with what the "known bitcoiners" motivations are for not promoting SN or if it's something else entirely.

I’m saying it doesn’t matter. It’s just noise and a way for people to throw you off your game. When you’re building something great you need tunnel vision. Stacker News success is not determined by outside forces never has been. All it needs is for it to keep growing at a steady rate to sustain itself.
Most Bitcoin companies never make it past 4 years, SN has already done that. Most builders hardly stay on a single project more than a couple years. Keyan and Ek have already done that.
Never been more bullish on SN.
The longer you stay in the space the more you realize most of the people getting the most attention work like 2 days a week and just do the Bitcoin celebrity conference circuit. Keyan works like 6 days a week 14hr days. I wouldn’t bet against that.

Yes promote your territories and think of inventive ways to do that.
I like what ~Stacker_Sports territory did by making a podcast. That was genius, or what PlebPoet does with her writing poems or photos.
Come up with interesting ways of doing posts, AMA’s and sn nerd-snipes on other platforms.
Not determined by, but we don't want to be tilting at windmills if we don't have to, either. Knowing the motives and incentives pervading the ecosystem can be useful.
