Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Maybe you'd use some other crypto, but that aside, while cool in theory, the whole Lemmy would probably have to be reworked from the ground up to rely on the blockchain you're thinking of ~~like Nostr~~ (sorry, I don't know what gave me the impression that it was a blockchain). It should be possible to add the function in the current architecture instead, a bit like Misskey and others add extras such as reactions
Why nostr?
You're right, I misunderstood how it worked, corrected now
You don't really need Lemmy to change anything. Just have the user fill in a wallet field in their profile and Lemmy to have their own wallet address. Now, you can tip a user and have some of that go to Lemmy as well by specifying the ratio in the contract or even having it being customisable by the donor.
That sounds interesting, although I could see people creating their own instance to send awards that look the same for free, maybe they should be limited to being displayed on the same instance they were awarded from?
Well, the badge can be displayed only after the transaction is confirmed on the blockchain. Easy way to verify and prevent spam awards.
I'm sold, time for an RFC?
That would really work great and it's not even hard to make. 300 likes of code would do the whole thing
