Yep, we have plan to do that in the future but if you inclined to create and maintain one, please do.
Do keep in mind though, because the content for classified is easier to generate, we might see an influx of ads post all across the front page, which isn’t good for anyone, including the fediverse(we might get mail from other instance to take action or get defederated). So it’s better to have ground rule attached, and specify what sort of post is allowed.
Better yet if you went through all the submission, or have a scheduled post that refresh every few days.
I wish in the future Lemmy devs would give its software tools to fine tune the algorithm, like lowering exposure for the planned classifields community.
Yeah, i’d like that too, the “Hot” is so buggy and i’d like to see how they calculate the priority point and see if we can tweak it and make it better. But i won’t hold my breath for that lol.
From what 🦀 said, after thinking about it, I probably should wait until the software matures - either with improvements of front-page algorithm, or ability to minimize a community’s exposure to the whole fediverse. I can definitely see moderation being a huge commitment if at least those two things aren’t implemented yet. I’m not a big fan of creating threads due to limited searchability among other issues. I’ll sit on this one and deliberate further. 🤔💭
Would a classifieds section be good for monyet.cc? Like for buying/selling or services offered?

A daily/weekly classifieds thread?
Yep. Or a few days.
Oooh, that’s interesting to know. Thanks!
If you look at some of the communities here, you will notice that there are a lot of other ciplak communities here lol.
Just create one

haha, i just went ahead and created a car community. It will never be popular, but i can still do within my powers to promote it
