Maybe @siggy47 could switch ~bitcoin_beginners to be moderated? I think for the beginner/intro topics that would be desirable.

I have thought about it.

I didn't find any spam post there. May be my knowledge is way too little to catch one.

Especially the "bitcoin_beginners" should have only Q&A from newbies, basic tutorials for them, helping posts in general.
Do not bombard them with hundreds of general articles, podcasts episodes, meaningless videos, memes or whatever other crap.
I see barely 5-10% good content for bitcoin beginners there.
The lightning territory, again is bombarded with general information that should go to any other territory or directly to bitcoin. Barely you can find specific posts (again) about use cases, Q&A from users about specific use of LN.
But yeah many assmilkers post there because is cheaper to throw infinite number of links without any value for that territory, just with the hope they will grab some few sats.
I really think that SN territories are too cheap to post. People get totally wrong what is SN, they mainly think is a faucet and not a way TO PAY for posting good content.

You're right about assmilkers. I agree. I see some stackers are only posting links. They even don't bother to read comments. What's surprising to me is that an assmilker [who only post links] always remain in top 10.
Yes, I also feel that many people think that SN is a faucet. That's why they are just posting copied content and links. There's also a problem that these people think that they know everything. I'm not against high fees but it's territory owners who decide about fees. Idk, do they have power of red flagging spammers and assmilkers?

The people that post super often get zapped, so apparently someone is indirectly saying it provides value
