I have thought about this quite a lot. I know there are some freeloaders for sure, but I don't really feel like I am in a position to call anyone out at this point.
I have a really cool idea that I'd like to build for Hive, but I want to actually make sure that I can pull it off. Therefore I plan to actually built it out to a certain degree on my own time. If it turns out to be useful and becomes popular, then perhaps I will try to fund further development with the DHF.
Unfortunately all i got here was 100% of devs pre-emptively trying to clear their name even though they werent called out in any way and talk how their project was amazing.
I knew that would happen and i specifically made it clear thats not what i wanted. So all in all this was an entirely pointless post because out of professional curtesy not a single dev is willing to speak up about anything that relates to anyone else.
