I don't actually know why we need developers for this. We have some very knowledgeable power users, now, who would be more impartial and still make informed decisions.

The power users could start their own fund?
Why do you think that isn't what this is?
Could see nodeless (the gofundme alternative thing) used more for smaller projects. Would be nice if it appeared as embeds inside posts with target and progress bar to goals.
Oooh... like a reverse-bounty. 👀
It isn’t
The only mention of the nostr committee they mentioned were full of either client devs with their own personal interests (devs should decide grants they have no stake in) or people with investments. A good chunk of the board isn’t involved with Nostr that much from what I see
That's... weird. 🤔
We also have zap goals, Geyser, zapvertising... many models in place to raise funds.
