10 sats \ 9 replies \ @ek 23 Dec 2023 \ parent \ on: Welcome to AGORA π The SN P2P Marketplace AGORA
~Agora comes first in the dropdown, lol
And I think a little competition between territories is natural (and might be part of the game theory?)
btw, territory links are case-sensitive for some reason.
Nice detail, thanks for sharing. We could actually use ~MarketPlace then... but ~Bazaar still my favourite

No, you can't, it's a bug. Only the links are case-sensitive but they shouldn't be.
Our database actually saves the names as
citext
which is a case-insensitive data type.reply

Imo, it's just a matter of "ranking territories" based on some metrics like amount of posts, zaps, comments ... activity in general.
Territories will have network effects themselves. You won't want to post in some territory where no one else is posting. You will post where everyone else is posting.
And market forces will hopefully take care of the rest (unprofitable vs. profitable territories).
The question is just: Is every territory a "winner takes all" game? Or will there be competition for ever (for some)? If so, why? Because people start rallying behind founders for various reasons, including personal? That's left to be seen, I guess.
We're still early. :)

it will be nice to have the ability to add other moderators to a territory so it can be easy to maintain

You can have a section with trending territories

So who will be the guy to put AAAgora like the old plumbing, taxi, locksmith.... Trick or the phone book. βΎοΈ Agora?
reply
Ahaha, ancient trick! well, not sure it will show up in the search results. I think this should also be considered by the @SN team when considering solving the case-sensitiveness issue of the territories
reply
I think the free market will fix this. It looks like the cost of maintaining the territory will solve issues and if it is well thought as yours is then it should be successful.
This isn't the bleeding edge for nothing. At least sats are moving off chain and ideas are booming.
