I'd actually prefer to see regular people promoting their business or services on Mastodon rather than elsewhere. Heck a "Mastodon Marketplace" that would bring buyers & sellers together but be underpinned by community style controls might have the potential of being better than Twitter, FB, etc.. Under that scenario it might weed out scams & allow buyers to connect with recommended businesses not just those that pay for promotion.
Also "Don't be a dick" is good life advice.
@NJWookie Yep, I would dig that, I just can't build it right now.
It would be a great solution to have a marketplace here. Opt-in, of course.
