It's no secret that Nouns has changed. There's ofc lots of nuance to how we got here, the good and bad. At its core, it's the underlying mechanics that drive the current dynamic. The early epoch was nounder-led, then we had a more financially oriented ethos, and now we sit at a 'governance R&D hub'. It's another changing of the guard. I don't find the current motif exciting. Many early Nouns folk feel the same, and that's ok. The game was set up to behave as it has, and I wish the current set of leaders the best. On the other hand, Nouns is CC0. Plenty of funded projects are thriving. In many ways, the DAO is now one node among several in the network, which is exactly how CC0 was meant to play out. We can continue to experiment with the noggles, the people, and the lessons learned to build new nodes. As for me, after four years of nonstop grind for the DAO, Prop House, and Rounds, I have to admit I am burnt out. I am still here. I have ongoing convos with many Nouns folk, I check camp regularly, I see the projects that are being developed, but for now I'm on the sidelines until new inspiration strikes to dive back in.

Good take. I feel similarly. Frankly, feeling uninspired by the "new leaders" and the 'mission' they've outlined... It's sad nouns legacy is changing from "keeping nouns weird" to what has become over the last 6 months. I'm worried this is how Nouns will be remembered, in the long run. Would have rather seen the auctions go much lower with a more diverse group of participants instead of a bot outbidding new folks and new voices joining the dao. Like, I get it — You can buy as many tokens as you want... but SHOULD YOU(?) if you want a healthy DAO? Seems like they don't care about that and are using Nouns like its "theirs" now, making deals with folks and other DAOs before the vote even goes up... I've delegated my votes because voting seems pointless now.. At least before when the Nounders brought props forward, your votes alone typically didn't push a prop over the line unless the community was behind it as well.

huh? im saying i dont know your opinions and can never tell where you stand on matters. I feel like I know Seneca's opinions better, as an example (and have never spoken to him), yet i've sat in hours of chats with you and still don't know where you stand. Closer, like- you want me to sit on your face? lol.. or make me understand your views on nouns better? Because I'd love to understand the latter.
