    This is the kind of funding the Fediverse actually needs: Better tools are great, but without people making things worth watching or listening to, we’re just building increasingly elegant infrastructure for arguing about infrastructure. Pairing creators with developers is a genuinely smart move.

    Fantastic idea but I have always thought that more than a lack of tools, the problem is the cost of hosting in the case of development, and the difficulty of monetization in the case of peertube-type content creators. But hey, it’s my idea, maybe I’m wrong and projects like this are sure to help a lot.
