A tip button would fix that problem. Then anyone who finds content at any time can reward the author. No complicated rules, no stupid timers, no voting bot manipulation, just a simple tip for good content.

The way it sits now your posts are locked forever and make you nothing after the voting payout. That's why people stop posting.

Great suggestion! There are plans to add this.

There are?

Sorry if I miscommunicated. Based on the conversation in the GitHub issue (and there was a link to a trello item) I kind of assumed this was a matter of "when" more than a matter of "if". Regardless though, I should not have worded it the way I did. It is not up to me to say what is/isn't planned -I just try to report on what I see. I apologize for that.

I'd love to see a tip button. Just make it simple to give some extra. It should be simple as it's just a web site feature. I wonder if one of the alternative sites will do it first

Perfect suggestion.

We could have a one week with a 1 month payment... Just abandon 24h

I guess 7 days is enough to get 90%+ of what it's likely to get. There's a long tail, but some posts may get discovered via Google much later. I understand people will at least be able to comment then
