I have literally a dozen really good ideas per month. At least. But I lack the discipline, resources, skills and grit for a successful execution. I learned the hard way that nobody gives anything for an idea.

Same. 100% the same. But that's where cooperation comes in.
Others can't come up with ideas like we can, but can do the action behind the idea that we can't do.
Like I can come up with the idea to use the nostalgia of what myspace 1.0 was with the custom themes, music, top friends, etc to onboard millions onto nostr (essentially stress testing what we have now to learn what actually needs work)but I don't know how to do the actions behind it to make it happens..
When a dev thinks this is a good enough idea, the right time, or w/e something will happen with it...
That's why writing down your ideas, or noting them, is important!
Humans just need to learn to work together more...
Less competition, more cooperation!
And this is why FOSS is important.
Agree. But extracting value from FOSS is hard - in part because it's at least partially against the spirit of FOSS.
Foss and just open source, It's not about the money in this context. It's about cooperation of idea havers and action takers.
I agree that with FOSS it's not about the money. But we were in the context of what is or is not valuable, so it made sense to point out, that value extraction in FOSS - desirable or not - is hard.
