You are over your skis. Maybe some developers feel constrained because one of nine OpenSats members is also a partner in a VC fund that invests in competitors to OpenSats grantees. That doesn’t mean that there is a secret agreement imposed. If you don’t like how OpenSats is allocating grants, then donate directly. If you are a developer and feel uncomfortable, raise donations directly from your users. No need for drama.

If there is anything unknown about it, it needs to be known and made public. And if there are any closed door back room decisions being made that aren't disclosed, then anyone donating them ought to stop.
