Stacker.News Added Nostr Crossposting, Quote Replies & More
Stacker.news is like hacker.news but pays you in bitcoin.
- "PR merging vacation: Take a knee contributors. PRs for new features will not be merged (by me at least) until I finish personalized feeds. Please continue to send in PRs, it just might be slightly slower turnaround than usual," said @k00b.
- "Please shout loud about any bugs you find!"
What's new
- Rewards update. "Rewards are now random. Every night I give a cowboy a bottle whiskey and he flips a coin. If it lands on heads, we reward the top 33% of posts/comments. If it lands on tails, we reward the zappers of the top 33% of posts/comments."
