The Agora
In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.
Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.
You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.
Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

I can see a huge draw for something like this. One of my core use cases for Reddit (and CheapAssGamers among other sites) was tracking video game and related sales. My default sub was a meta-reddit of just sales sites (e.g. r/SwitchDeals, r/gamebundles, r/gamedeals, etc...). Not sure if this lines up with OP's question (which may be more market / marketplace focused) but there is a value in communities like this, from my humble perspective.
So I rather like the idea of using lemmy to launch products. The sales of linked items to subsidize the costs to maintain the servers could be collected like a tax..... Up to and including paying moderators of the server. This would have implications though. Both positive and negative.
