I'm interested in your opinion on Ecency and PeakD receiving funding from the DHF?

Personally, I can see positives and negatives.

Positives being that they're by far the most popular front-ends and using them to distribute the blockchain's governance token as far as possible is advantageous to everyone.

But at the same time, they're nothing more than private businesses and we can see PeakD taking advantage of the community funded growth via add-ons like their NFT marketplace (of which they take a cut on each sale).

So why is it fair they receive public funding and say LeoFinance or the plethora of other stunted front-ends do not?

Once PeakD reach sustainability as a business, will this public funding stop?

Would it be better to instead offer all Hive front-ends that have been in existence for 6 months or something, the opportunity to receive an equal cut of a single DHF proposal?

This could potentially remove the issue of functional censorship I spoke about in the blog, as it would give alternative front-ends the means to quickly and effectively scale up.

While also encouraging a path to self sustainability via layer-2.

Sorry, you've spurned so many follow up questions in my mind here haha! ;)
