help ofrnxmr take over the world

Welcome ladies and gentleman! I'll be your host this evening. I go by a couple of names.. People call me a lot of things, some of them to my face! But usually, they call me: ofrnxmr.

Historically I have tried to remain selfless, covering my Monero-related expenses out-of-pocket. Over the past couple of years, I've survived almost entirely on donations received via the #monero-support matrix channel.

My proposal may seem a bit out of the ordinary. This can be attributed to the fact that I am ofrnxmr and I'm not ordinary. A standard proposal wouldnt make much sense.

While there are a few items on the list of things I'd like to get done, this proposal is intended to lean towards my work being largely without specific targets. This is a generic proposal, unrelated to any specific commitments such as my work with, example, BasicSwapDEX

Update 1: [April 12, 2024] Addressing Comments - "Drop all described roles":

• I shall continue to focus and improve upon past actions / roles
• My intent is to continue as always
  • As such, extracurricular activites not listed here will continue/expand accordingly
• I am explicitly requesting donations for my existence, and not "payment" for milestones.

Rest assured that none of these changes should be misconstrued to imply that less is on the table now vs the OG wording.

Terms:

• 12 Months @ 208 XMR

Rate:

• 1 XMR = 1 XMR

Update 2: [April 12, 2024] Addressing Comments - "Split payments":

Payout structure:

• 100% paid at the time of funding.

Payout schedule:

• M0 = 100% at time of funding

As per the rules: If funding goal (100%) is not reached, I reserve the right to request pay in (min) 25% chunks once every 4 weeks.

+Welcome ladies and gentleman! I'll be your host this evening.
+I go by a couple of names..
+People call me a lot of things, some of them to my face!
+But _usually_, they call me: **ofrnxmr**.
+
+Historically I have tried to remain selfless, covering my Monero-related expenses out-of-pocket. Over the past couple of years, I've survived almost entirely on donations received via the #monero-support matrix channel.
+While not easy, the handful of donations I received was enough to keep me from crashing.
+[disclaimer: During bad times, I have had to _borrow_ xmr from the community]
+That being said, mid 2023 til present has seen a lot of unnecessary attempts to stagnate work i had previously invested time, energy or money into.
+Matrix room admins, specifically erc, sgp, and now xmrscott - decided they'd like for monero to be subject to their comfort zones, a mindset that has never produced anything and is counter to monero's ability to withstand an adversarial environment. The former 2 have since stepped down (They should have never had the power to direct conversation or handle conflicts in the first place) while the latter 1 (scott) does everything in his "power" to limit my ability to access discussions or to efficiently collaborate with contributors..

+A standard proposal wouldnt make much sense.

+This is a generic proposal, unrelated to any specific commitments such as my work with BasicSwapDEX or potentialy co-maintaining docs for example (if necessary).
