The current funding is structured in a way that punishes building teams. Teams gather their own momentum, animate others, and are resilient. @GitCitadel has been feeling beleagured and unwanted, from the beginning, because we're more engineers and scientists, than hackers. We're now one of the biggest, longest-running and most-productive and innovative projects, and we're unusually efficient with costs, and still get no good press or grant funding. Most people have never even heard of the #Alexandria project. I keep seeing people mention integrating AI and nobody ever brings us up, even though that's a major focus of our project and we actually have the expertise and personnel to implement it, and have already begun doing so. I don't know if a new fund will change that, tho.
