Thank you for this proposal, @TokenLogic. We support updating the snapshot space admins and authors but do not support moving to a new snapshot space.
We believe Discourse also requires some updates to further decentralize it. As we recently mentioned, we should establish an Admin committee or have at least multiple delegates/service providers and community members for both Snapshot & Discourse.
Regarding the minimum balance, we believe that all service providers, and we would also recommend delegates, should have the author role. While Skyward is a commendable initiative and theoretically enables decentralization, it still relies on a single entity to perform the task. This is why we believe community members should be able to prepare proposals with multiple contributors and not be limited to going through only with the ACI.
Another valuable piece of information for the DAO is that @Flipside had this on their list of tasks to do since two months ago when they first proposed their service provider temp check. After discussing with multiple delegates, they planned to post about it within the last 2-3 days, but you proceeded to “front-run” them (even after @fig was asking you to wait).
We don’t see a significant problem with putting proposals forward faster than another community member, as this is, of course, a free space to express ideas and improve the community. However, we question how this might seem like “hijacking” it from Flipside, especially when it’s not such an urgent matter. We also question the motives here when looking at the broader context of what has happened in the DAO over the last month. The proposal of initially canceling the Llama service provider stream ,before editing, had a direct suggestion from the biggest delegate of Aave to eventually make @TokenLogic a service provider within Aave. All of this was happening while an ARFC vote was in progress for @Flipside to become a service provider.
We have noticed increased tensions among extremely active contributors to the DAO recently. This is not something we want to witness or portray as one of the largest DAOs in the space.
If we aim to achieve decentralization, embrace diversity, and encourage activity within the DAO, then our current behavior is not conducive to attracting new contributors.
Let’s move forward with this in mind!
