fwiw it took SN 8 months to get to 200k sats/mo. Historically, absent ~jobs, the lionsshare of revenue has come from boost/ads/donations. Hopefully we can introduce an ad post type among other revenue generating things soon.
I'd guess we'll see our first profitable territory sooner than 8 months.

That would be awesome. I must admit the thought did cross my mind to create an ~ads territory but I knew that would be a distraction and derail future plans 😅

I thought @ad was taking care of it already... Uh wait! An AD post type will be great for SN, but probably make the ~Agora obsolete already. However, I do recognize it's needed

Not every product or service listing is an advert. Adverts are expensive and perform better when you find a niche audience interested in your product. Adverts can relate to any audience or subject.
As an advertiser do you:
  1. only want to advertise to a bunch of general people amongst all the Facebook marketplace listings
  2. or do you also want to advertise to very specific audiences who have searched for a particular niche, product or service?
Most likely you’d favour the latter (2) but the former (1) will still generate ad listings and conversions also.
~Agora will be just fine. People would still want to pay a bunch of sats to rank at the top of all the organic listings people are checking-out.
