Wasn't able to comment earlier, but, I'm not sure if a proposal is necessary or the right approach. In general I've been a bit skeptical of the current ones getting funded as well, I think in many if not most cases they're ignoring transparency and just looking to get as much funding for personal gain as possible. I'm going to be a lot more stricter in the near future and the newer ones I approved to see how they report and document what they're doing with the funding if they wanna keep my vote.
In this regard, if the downvotes stopped for instance, we'd have to rally people to unvote if it got funding. At the same time, I'm also not sure why 35$ daily was the number it landed on, it shouldn't require that much work and effort to have a place where people can report their content being a target of this and curators checking that that's the case and then compiling some of those posts into a CCC or something to send them post rewards through while the curators and compiler gets a cut from the post rewards instead.
So my thoughts would be that some smaller rewards go this way to those behind the project rather than turning it into a big thing with proposals and stuff, after all this is about helping people, not profiting off of it, which even with the best intentions could lead down to more manipulation over time.
I feel like for smaller things like these, personally, it's okay to use the post reward pool, at the same time it makes each day unique and people can curate them accordingly. I.e. if there were only 3 posts that suffered these downvotes that day then u vote it a bit less and give the curators/people behind the project less rewards. I can tell you that close to no proposals have returned any funds to the DHF so far so that maybe explains my thinking here as well. A lot of the delegate 1 hp here and give 1% beneficiary here seems a bit unnecessary as well.
Anyway, just some initial thoughts of this idea.
Thanks so much for your input! I honestly thought $10 a day per person was cheap! lol
but I am American, so my perspective is different. I know what we get paid for an hour's work is a lot different than around the world. I don't even see that as profit but simply paying people for the time to run a project for the benefit of the community. When I talked about this idea... literally so many people were like...ummmm too much work lol I don't have the time for it. π€£
And a 1 HP delegation, again, I would have thought this was something that is so minimal for everyone!! But you're the second person to ask why it's so high. I'm so used to seeing much higher delegations all around the platform. I don't think I've ever seen one as low as 1HP. and it's a delegation.. lol people can literally remove it and get it right back if they decide it doesn't align with their objective anymore.
But I must just have a clear picture of what's common on Hive anymore. oh well! lol
Im excited to see what ideas spin off this conversation to see what help will come to the community for these issues. Maybe Trost has something a lot more feasible!! So let's be on the lookout for his plan! π
Thanks again for all your support for deraaa.. and for your responses on the last post snd this one! I know she was only one person that we got to help but I guess until this situation gets solved, it's just the reality of Hive right now.
well, we do eventually get a break between one whale war and the next. π€·
keep our heads up and find the joy!!
have a great night acid..(or day hehe)
No the delegations aren't high, I just think that whole idea is a bit pointless. Unless you fear that the "compilation posts" of those targeted will also get downvoted? In that case I could understand going the proposal route + delegations and beneficiaries. Also it's not about 35$ being high, it's about getting something for your time and effort for helping out, whether that's 10$ or $100 is all up in the air in these markets and if you value the main currency of the ecosystem. I just don't want it to be seen as "work" and we do something similar in ocd where curators and post editors get a little bit of the rewards we give out for the time and effort to find the posts to curate.
It's not a big issue and I'm happy something is done about it or attempted, guess I was just hoping it'd be more of a genuine gesture to help out (not saying this isn't), but the current "proposed" idea doesn't feel right to me somehow.
Either way, just some thoughts at first read, will try checking what other people say over time.
