Lower the post cost of ~news territory
Hello ~news stackers 👋
I've just received a strange SN deposit which had a message assigned to it aiming to pop/notify me with a suggestion to lower the cost for posting in my ~news territory.
In my opinion, the cost for posting in a SN territory is crucial for its lifecycle because it's at the same time important for gaining traction and popularity by making it accessible and affordable for users to create content in it but on the other hand it plays an important role as the only shield against spam and any other type of abuse so every territory owner should carefully choose it depending taking into account many factors like the importance and sensitivity of the topic(s) it covers, activity (most people would simply avoid some territories just because their post cost is too high) etc.
And as I take running my SN territory seriously, the only concern I have is whether lowering the cost would result in flooding the territory with spam and in ~news' case in attempts for disinformation and fake news. On the other hand, I want to listen to my territory users who did his best to politely ask me at least to reconsider the price so that's why I decided to create this poll and ask you for your opinion on the matter:
