I certainly have not, but I didn't expect to yet. I think this is a long term project. I hope we will grow along with SN as it gradually becomes a major social media site. I have been very hands off with my territories, trying to allow them to evolve naturally. That might be a mistake if they just sit there. If we get a nice juicy sell the ETF news dip maybe I'll buy them outright.

I’ve also tried to let the territory evolve naturally and not make them arbitrarily expensive. But definitely think I could engage more and review the recent feed more frequently each day.
Some great resources that were posted got missed by me, with just 10sats or less.
I also want to find a way to encourage people to include more detail when posting links. Without providing a rigid structure. Really helps provide context for people as to whether to click, and the key takeaways, but might be more a personal preference. Seems to have worked for my sat-stack to date.

Also fwiw, I spend at least an hour per day in recent. Not that we should expect other founders to do this, but I do it first thing in the morning, usually immediately upon waking, then check back consistently throughout the day (probably at least 5 times) with one more serious pass before I go to bed lol.
I do this mostly to satisfy expectations, and set a floor, on how posts are received. At some point enough good stuff is in recent that other people will be drawn to wading through it themselves (and get rewarded for zapping the good stuff). Stackers usually catch all the good stuff before I do these days, but I still scrape it regularly out of habit.

Absolutely agree. I try my best to always sort by recent. Imagine you're the boss of a business... Go interact with your customers at every opportunity. Be a face not a faceless entity. Build relationships and people will come to you.

The naked link thing is a pet peeve of mine. We have the means to reward/punish, like zaps, downzaps, or removing posts, but I don't want to do that yet, if ever.

I'm with you on the naked link stuff. There's a couple posts here and there which are just a link and done. But I don't want to discourage users from using the space. But I'd rather they said something about that link, why they liked it for example. Share thoughts start discussion. Perhaps I could switch off the link only posts and kinda force people's hands to post as a discussion.

I am going to attempt a crowd sourced beginner bitcoin resources mega post along the lines of yours. I think that you in particular, because it was such a good post, but all of us to a lesser extent too, will benefit from the ability to pin posts. That will change the feel of territories. Also, a more robust, more visible territories landing page that can be edited easily and zapped would be game changing.
