Usually the tech bros all have the same books but there are some different ones on this list.

Siggy I think KR should be sponsoring your territory for the low low price of 100k sats a month. You can put his book club link in the bio. It's like stadium naming rights. This is another reason for territory bios to be static on the top of a territory and not pull down. It would feasibly provide founders with a sponsorship opportunity.
BooksandArticles is brought to you by (bookmarked.club). As long as it was something simple, and related I don't think it would be complete heresy.

Good idea. I would like pinned posts with options to charge a fee for pinning, and a static bio on the top of the page. That's if I was Emperor.

From notifications I was unsure if you were agreeing with Siggy's ideas or the proposition of taking out k00b and replacing him with Siggy. You are going to need to learn to code Siggy.

i like this idea, the ad functionality should be offered to all territory owners so they have better monetization tools.
however, i’m not sure the description is the right place for an ad… to give the advertiser decent exposure it should probably be some sort of pinned post.

Whilst the book recommendations are interesting and from a very successful person I would prefer some context as to why those books. Some are obvious choices, others less so.
And doubling down I would say that just knowing the books isn’t enough; if I was in his house and looking at his bookshelves.. what would it say about the choice of books, the arrangement, the condition. Is ‘Concorde; The Inside Story’ a well thumbed book or relegated to the bottom shelf?

you can click “show reviews” to see added context, explaining why each person recommended a given book, which also includes a link to their original recommendation.

curious to know if you’d prefer seeing the reviews by default or having the reviews hidden with an option to show them?

Option to show I think.. first time using the site (following your link) and it wasn’t clear that was an option (viewing on mobile it is initially hidden by the ‘sign up’ box) and it wasn’t obvious later as I was scrolling through the books.
