I don't like the way the DHF runs at all.
People seem to be using the return proposal as a way to gauge whether a project is worth supporting, but literally nobody ever looks at whether any proposal is viable, if it ever achieves its goals, nor if the money is even spent as described, nor is there any discussion about the value to Hive and whether it helps support the chain.
In other words, it seems to be a closed shop controlled by 20 or so people. My understanding is that Hive was designed to bew a decentralised social media platform and was supposed to be a welcoming space.
We seem to be a long way from that and the whoel DHF thing needs a rethink. We need to do better.
SPL proposal has something like 800 votes backing it.
That's more than 20. And more people are welcome to participate.
that's true enough, thank you, but does that invalidate my point?
No, that one:
still stands, except it's not nobody, but it's not everybody either.
let's hope the mood improves 🙂
there is enough power in all the smaller accounts to get a proposal passed.
it is just easier to get the large accounts to help you.
If you want to spread out the power and get more things passed.
Don't support large witness voting trails or curation projects.
Work on building up the smaller communities etc...
