Relying on grants is not the way. You can’t grow your team on grants, its not even allowed as grants are only for individuals. Support client devs directly to have a larger impact and to properly build out a nostr ecosystem that isn’t all funded under a board of decision makers with 0 transparency, where if you make a post like this you likely won’t get your next round of funding and LTS. Don’t let VCs capture and control nostr. GM

Totally agree, I applied months ago and never knew why my project was discarded. The lack of funding has hindered the development and consequently has hindered nostr We cannot depend on grants to develop, in my opinion, the model you have adopted in Damus is the right one. I've been thinking for weeks about doing something similar with my service, it will be the only way to survive without having to ask for a handout.
