<p>Hey <a class="user-mention" data-hovercard-user-id="34919942" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/HarryMacfinned">@HarryMacfinned</a>,<br>
I am not sure if we should value activity on reddit so much.</p>
<p>To some extent we never really pushed for much marketing, we kinda just always found that word of mouth and honest recommendations by regular users is the best approach for now.<br>
Furthermore, it might even cloud people's judgement a bit, when they see that Bisq is pushing to be advertised so much across reddit, instead of focusing on providing the best service possible.</p>
<p>I am not saying that your activity on reddit is necessarily bad for Bisq, no one can know that for sure I guess.<br>
But I am just saying that by accepting this compensation request, we are actively supporting and encouraging it. Compensation request are retroactive, so we can only control what the DAO does by accepting/rejecting work that is already done.</p>
<p>I think it is important for us to feel comfortable with rejecting compensation requests and not to experience it as something personal, because this is the way that we decide on what DAO does.<br>
I will have to vote against this one, as I personally think that it is best for Bisq that we don't spend so much on paid activity on reddit.</p>
