New idea for the #fediverse. Not initially my idea but I've built on it. A way to advertise to people who are looking to shop only. In the search bar in place of the # use say $$ in front of any search. People who are selling will tag their stuff with the same tag. Probably the easiest place to build an only shop gallery is #pixelfed @dansup The portfolio layout is all there. The pictures in the gallery would just need descriptions under the thumbnails marked with $$. Anything the $$ would automatically get its date of posting updated every two weeks to remain relevant in searches. $$ listings would not appear in the global feed, just to people who put in the search. This could help as an alternative to the etsy and amazon searches. Sadly there would then need to be a ban/block list available to known scammers, or unethical sellers or rating systems or store accounts. This would of course require all of #activitypub to get involved or just be a pixelfed thing. #sales #advertisement #amazon #etsy #smallbusiness #art #artisan
