I might go that route, but I wouldn't value it more than $50/d, and that would be the EXTREME case. The issue with non-tech people is they tend to overcomplicate stuff. On the other hand, this is my profession.
But realistically speaking, $10/d is enough for maintaining something like that. Server costs plus 5 hours of development time per month. It doesn't need leaderboard or the next hype. It is just what it is. And maintaining that is easy
Yeah, I think the same. Hundreds of dollars per day is too much for that. I'm personally okay with DHF paying $10/d, but I get your point. That's why I said "I might", because I'm unsure of it either.
As an solid and real world case I can say show how open-source community works. If people act like this is a business, it would have business degree costs. But there are people out there writing code worth of thousands of dollars for free.
So, if I become too busy with something else, I'd probably make it open source and allow someone else to take over. I'd do it open-source, but I dislike the idea of money incentivized entities stealing my work or being influenced by it.
I have many ideas I haven't implemented for or shared with leofinance; saved for myself. So, if I can make it a reality, something people respect and know, then I can make it open-source with no issues.
As long as you're funding it and not the DHF, fantastic.

But you can see the issue of front-ends getting money from the DHF, but not actually monetising the content, right?
How its not sustainable?

Good luck with it mate, as a $HIVE stakeholder, I do hope it works out.
