I've spent years in this cesspool sub, only to leave for it for good a year-ish ago; Reddit's spot got quickly taken by Stacker News.
Although both outlets are Bitcoin-centric, they could not be further apart from each other:
SN's community is, albeit a lot smaller (it's a lot like a small town where you simply get to know the users), very constructive on feedback, open for discussion, friendly, and helpful.
On SN, there's practically no talk about either "FUD", "Fear" or "Hype" about a given "good" or "bad" day on the market, nor are there any posts Γ la "Should I buy now?" "Are we still early?" "Why are we dumping?" Et cetera.
The team behind SN is very active within the community, and all of them are both fun and good at what they do; they're (especially K00b and Ek) really driven about improving what already is a very nice place to be, and since it's all FOSS, the community is endorsed to contribute towards the development of the platform, and changes that are implemented are reimbursed through a "Bounty-program".
Zaps. The idea behind SN is to provide Value-4-Value, or in other words: Good content is rewarded with Satoshi's, instead of worthless likes or upvotes (I managed to accrue ~ 390k sats over the period of a solid year, while spending ~42k sats on good content, simply by participating within the community. The reward-system is awesome and works.
Daily rewards. Top "Stackers" and "Zappers" are rewarded each day a portion of the fees and other contributions which are collected in a pot, further incentivizing participation and contribution of good, content.
Off-topic. While it's a Bitcoin-centric app in both it's operation- and topic, there are also off-topic "subs", or territories, where one can write about practically anything while still being able to earn sats.
It's already a very nice place to be and talk about our favorite protocol, but we'd like to have some more like-minded people join us!
Therefore, i'd like to ask SERIOUS, GROWN-UP BITCOINERS to come and have a look- it's free, after all!
Let the kids have Reddit, we have Stacker News.
