After diving deeper into Optimism Retro Funding and its underlying concepts (notes here: GitHub Notes), I realized that Retro Funding is a highly versatile tool. It can effectively support various scenarios, such as:
- Funding KOLs based on their performance.
- Supporting writers for impactful articles or posts.
- Rewarding developers for meaningful PRs.
However, building a functional system based on this idea and ensuring it works seamlessly can be challenging.
I recently came across the easy-retro-pgf tool from the Gitcoin team (GitHub Repository). Although I haven’t explored it in depth, it seems somewhat complex, many processes.
My Questions:
- What is the simplest Retro Funding design?
- From workflow, features, and UI perspectives, how can we create a streamlined and general framework that covers 80% of common scenarios?
- Can we gamify the process and workflow?
- How can we make Retro Funding engaging, fun, and community-driven to encourage broader participation?
My Actions:
- Deeply test and explore the easy-retro-pgf tool to understand its strengths and limitations, focusing on potential improvements.
- Design a new app or refine the existing easy-retro-pgf tool to make it more intuitive and user-friendly.
Feel free to join the discussion, share your ideas, or provide feedback after testing the easy-retro-pgf tool. Let’s collaborate to improve Retro Funding and make it an even more powerful tool for rewarding meaningful contributions. Thanks.
