promoting your project (esp. for monetary gain) should not become your primary project
a lot of things in bitcoin have gone wrong because of that: HWWs, shitty grant funding schemes, podcasts, confs nostr:note1z0q26x4tgk5chvs5hesqx6mzjv65em8unz2rkrc8s20vc9q9dd6sdsmd58
Again I say: grants should be blindly chosen without names of developers on them.
Moreover, majority people here talk about being self-sovereign while sucking at the teets of big grant money. Me: cool story bro-helms about wanting to live self sufficient but you didn’t even build something without help. Make it make sense.
Everything is built on ashes of other entities work. The disrespect & theft of others is prevalent. Predators and prey.
