Hey nostr:npub1uq70uqgas9pyhds2zt57kr9se8rg3s68ztphjnq82ts8rzeknmeql7u0c2 .. wtf happened along the way?

In the beginning you very clearly articulated fedi as financially enabling communities, managed by a small group of guardians who were known (aka trusted) within the community

Clear on trade-offs and the reason for guardians and the need to run the infra that a fedimint would operate on .. then very long very quiet periods of building .. and now the bravo launch (🤝 ) .. but ..

The fedi app now has pages and pages and pages and pages and pages and pages of US-centric legal mumblefuck requiring acceptance to use, and agreement to be bound; at least based on the Bitcoin Atlantis one recently published I looked at

What on earth happened?

- too much vc money bringing too many lawyers?

- moved from building FOSS software to running software in order to monetise?

- 🤷‍♂️

The compare and contrast is kinda stark atm.
