Yes, I don't wanna see SN become another Reddit or Twitter. One of a network's value is the quality and focus of their users.
Absolutely. @k00b ser does SN have a mission statement?
reply
An implicit answer to this is in the origin story; @k00b also provided some good perspective in this thread a couple weeks ago.

Applying some sort of user requirement to be able to create subs can fix this
(Like you must stack at least 50k and have 5 cowboy hat streak to create a sub)

I don't know. 5 is to low IMO but I'm not even sure this is a good idea. Both can be gamed.

Our plan is to charge sats monthly to own a sub and let you earn any sats the sub generates. Each sub will be like a mini SN ... which itself can have subs in it.

Like a chef editor and can own the sub?
let you earn any sats the sub generates
But how does it work if others would like to post under the same sub, is it the same as charging the posting fee, but SN won't take any from it but taking monthly sats instead? Interesting.
It sounds like plebs are going to run their own gang.! each sub ( community / gang ) is free to thrive in its own way, yet still connecting to each other ( all Bitcoiners haha ) , so cool.
