I'm still pretty new to Stacker News compared to all of you who have been here for a long time. One of the first things I learned after creating an account was the existence of the daily Stacker's Saloon. To be honest, it was a great discovery. I saw a lot of stackers posting there every day and getting involved in different types of discussions.
When I saw the saloon, my first thought was that this saloon was probably about bitcoin. In other words, I thought it was a place to discuss ideas related to bitcoin, blockchain, or the Lightning Network. But soon I realized that more than 95% of the posts shared in the saloon had nothing to do with bitcoin.
Personally, I would like to see more bitcoin-related posts in the saloon. However, I have no problem with the posts in the Saloon. I have posted things there that have nothing to do with bitcoin. I don't have a problem with the Saloon being that way. I have posted and will continue to post.
So what is the purpose of this post?
I would like us to have another daily bitcoin saloon in the bitcoin territory where stackers can post and discuss topics related to bitcoin. So we could have two saloons, but in one saloon only bitcoin related topics would be discussed, while in the existing saloon various topics would still be posted and discussed.
I think this would be very useful not only for experienced stackers, but also for new stackers to ask questions about bitcoin and learn from more experienced stackers.
This is a thought that came to me a few days ago, but I was hesitant to post it. In the end, I decided to share it with you because I want to see what you think and whether or not it would be worthwhile to create another salon just for bitcoin topics. Or if it is just a crazy idea.
I am very curious to hear what you think.
95% of the posts shared in the saloon had nothing to do with bitcoin.
exactly that why saloon existed. to discuss anything else you like. All the rest are in specific territories.

how about adding Bitcoin logo or Darth photo in the wall πŸ‘€ some cats and dogs?

good work! but maybe change the second one to something else? like k00b or cool anon? and the Bitcoin logo seems not the right color πŸ‘€
reply
The color is like this because it is a bitcoin sun. How about this with @k00b, @ek and @Car?

i agree saloon should be bitcoin only
I don't think the platform has enough users or content to warrant segmenting into that many saloons
reply
But there are tons of Bitcoin posts, you can just comment there or get the link and strike up discussions in the saloon.
Also saloon is meant for the less serious but fun stuff. πŸ‘€

Yes, and I like it as it is. My question is why can we not have another similar place where we can discuss serious bitcoin stuff?
reply
who says you can't discuss serious Bitcoin stuff there? no rules is the rule πŸ‘€
but writing a post is probably better for Bitcoin related things.

I like the idea of ~bitcoin having it's own saloon. There's a role for a single place to talk about bitcoin stuff that may not rise to the level of their own posts.
I think one of the territories did run its own saloon for a little while.

~Music from @Public_N_M_E has its own daily discussion thread. Or were you thinking about another territory?
reply
I knew that, but I think one of them called it a saloon. I could easily be mistaken, though.
reply
Yes, that's the idea!

I'd like every territory to have its own saloon. Physical saloons can only be in one place at a time, after all.
reply
Create a Bitcoin daily discussion post in the bitcoin territory then. If you build it, they will come.
@Public_N_M_E does one for the music territory.
reply
I'd never discourage someone for doing it. Have at it. The only thing you can do is provide the space, if people want it they'll use it.

One is enough! A Bitcoin specific saloon doesn't make any sense considering saloon here meansβ€”
Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!
So, if you can understand, we have a territory for Bitcoin and you can ask anything there if you want...

Noooooooo

A saloon per territory would be something very good to see.
