I'm glad to hear about most of the devs getting along very well for the most part.

That could be a good idea, especially if developers who are more open to user feedback are frequently present in the group. I will definitely look that up. Thanks.

As I understand it, the more major clients are funded by people like Jack and such, right? I've just been wondering how nostrs retention rate would've performed if it was solely crowdfunded. Like the launching of a bunch of different clients at once, observing which ones are used the most for maybe the first month or so, then have a crowdfunding round for those clients and other future projects that get a significant amount attention through feeds. Maybe some form of advertisement on clients that aren't strictly social media-based. 

 Yeah, that would be users choosing which clients they prefer, but they went a different route. Various nonprofit and investment funds picking particular clients they like, basically, with no effective feedback-loop from users.

I wrote about it, once, under my other (much bigger) nym.

 Well, having nonprofits and investment funds funding the project will always lead to dev teams basing their work strictly on investor incentives. That's also just a rehashing of a typical corporate business model. You know... the kind of business that so many nostr users seen to want to escape from. Point is, that's probably not the best way to fund a freedom of everything protocol.

Btw, I'll promise I'll donate to GitCitadel once I have a better grasp of it.

I'll read that later😁.
