Paseb, I appreciate your candid observations about the complexity of decentralized governance and the potential challenges it presents. Your perspective is valuable and highlights some important considerations.
To better understand the nuances of OP’s governance approach, I encourage you to explore the phases of metagovernance and the design principles guiding the Foundation’s decision-making and experimentation processes. These resources offer insights into the gradual evolution of community ownership and empowerment.
It’s easy to generalize and make assumptions, especially when we don’t have a full understanding of the context. However, it’s important to remember that not all managers are the same. By assuming negative intent, we risk creating unnecessary divisions and hindering constructive dialogue.
I invite you to approach discussions with respect and share your concerns when supported by evidence. A great starting point is to familiarize yourself with the Optimism Code of Conduct. This document outlines the community’s shared values and expectations for respectful and constructive interaction.
Let’s foster a positive and collaborative environment. Remember to remain optimistic and seek clarification before jumping to conclusions. By focusing on facts and avoiding generalizations, we can work together to make the Optimism Vision happen.
