I tried multiple times to tell @ch0k1 to lower his territory fee to 50 sats, but he ignores it.
I haven't ignored your suggestion @e0ce06e368, even the opposite - immediately after your request, I made this territory poll post which aimed to express my opinion and concerns about your proposal and must impartially to collect SN and ~news users' feedback and opinion on the matter.
As you can see both from the poll results (76.5% to 23.5% to leave the cost as it is) and its comments where basically everybody expressed the 100 Sats are perfectly fine.
I doubt his territory makes much revenue...
As I already said - my main motivation to run the ~news territory is NOT to make profit out of it but because I found a SN niche which matched with my daily habit to read the news, filter the quality part of them (ofc from my perspective) and to share it to others in order to help them stay informed and try to block the noice of today's disinformation.
After clearing this out, one of my main concerns of lowering the cost of posts in ~news was that it could become the main catalyst for ruining exactly that mission by paving the way of users to flood the territory with misinformation ruining the whole effort of my filtering. Of course, I'm far away from the conclusion that my judgement of objectivity for the news I post is correct so that's why I'm always open for critics about the factology and moderation.
which is probably why he spams posts
I have never heard anyone else but you to complain that my posts are spam, again the opposite - I believe stackers like @Akg10s33 #752003 and other territory founders like @south_korea_ln and many more would confirm my efforts to share quality content.
Strange, I didn’t see your post. In my opinion, you own a territory that should have posts every single minute about whatever’s happening in the world. But people hesitate to post there because they’re worried they won’t get back what they put in. I’m saying this because I use SN a lot, and this change could really keep us updated without needing to check those sites all the time. You can ignore what I said about spamming I was just caught up in the moment. But you’re the owner, so it’s your decision.Fucking fine!

The fee is a tricky thing. I have a 21 sat fee. Darthcoin sees things differently from you, as he's suggested me to increase the fee. That's fine. He probably also got caught up in his hunt for assmilkers and noticed the low fee was giving them an uncheckered playground.
I also see ~science as a way to get the articles I deem interesting visible to the world. Science has taken a bad hit in reliability in recent years, because of idiots like Fauci, and others who start doing politics instead of just reporting their results. People don't trust the science anymore. Because all they hear is about climate change and vaccines. However, I want to show that a lot of good science is still being done. Beautiful math. Useful condensed matter research. Scary developments in terms of quantum computers and AI.
Of course, what I like is not what other people like. So, anyone can post what they want, but in my current iteration, I only tip the things I like. When tipping, I look at the content, not the Stacker. So yes, occasionally, an ass-milker gets sats from me.
And more selfishly, similar to @ch0k1, my goal is that with my current efforts of curating articles, in the long run, I won't have to do anymore, because other people will do it for me by posting in my territory. And I then won't have to visit outside news sources anymore.
