Yap i did. 2. and i did vote for some of them (not that my vote is somewhat important). i would like to hear your take on proposals that are on there. should not there be more proposals with the topics that you wrote about here?
Yes, I would look to see that, but the SPS has a different mark on what kind of projects can expect funding. Let's say a developer makes a small tweak to condenser (the software that poweres Steemit.com), if he wanted to do a proposal, he would have to spend 10 SBD, with the knowledge that 1.) it might take quite a long time for it to be approved and 2.) it might not get approved. The reason is the return proposal, which prevents leeches from draining the pool, which is important!
So, the developer rather makes a post, explaining what he changed/fixed/improved and stakeholders or curation services could vote on it, so he would def. receive some form of compensation.
Now, of course, the developer could create a longterm proposal, where he would ask for a price in return for working on condenser for a period of time. Similar to how SteemPeak asked for funding to implement updates to the Proposal page on their side and the implementation of Tribes, etc. This is important as it gives the developers of Steempeak (mainly @asgarth) the power to decide whether it's worth to implemented, because there is guaranteed amount of money to be paid out, in comparison to doing the job first and then creating the post, asking for funding.
and we are back to what steem is. and it would be interesting to hear that from top witnesses. just so we all, not that important, below average, people on steem know that and act accordingly
You're also important! Don't get that wrong. It's just super exhausting to bring changes to Steem. People still think that the EiP was only for the big guys to profit, while it's actually the opposite. Free downvotes and the new curve makes it so bad actors can't continue to abuse the system via self-voting, etc. without having to be accountable.
and we are back to what steem is.
Steem is a huge experiment on how people can utilize a shared resource pool for the greater good. We haven't got that right yet, which is why I wrote this post.
that is something jarvie was concerned, smaller changes not being worth it to make a proposal. i feel that we need a better way to "advertise" proposals. not sure how many people see, know and understand what is going on there, and how to vote.
