For those that do not have the time or skill to code, it would be great to have a market to hire engineers to fix the bugs and add features that are desired to software they are using. This free market can only exist for free software projects. OpenSats and others are providing that, which is great. I think it could be even more direct and advanced and help to determine the priorities of engineering efforts based on the most desired and wanted features.

Thoughts on bounty marketplaces? nostr:npub1fmunwy3lljfyzlgyuyman79lxwm4efz6pzlgqjwc400pr9l708qquvje8w is an interesting project in this vein

Yeah, bounties could be a part of this, however these may be more useful for things more open ended like security disclosures. Hiring someone specific, to add a feature or to fix a bug could be better so that multiple people do not accidently work on it, and there is a degree of quality that is expected from the work. This I think is more towards contract work, however groups of people can all pool money for the job, possibly.
