ok so as the interest seems really low ..idk if this would make sense to create next Nullstreet Journal!
@CryptoPrometheus maybe u could write about your concerns here ...as it seems people are not knowing what time consuming project this was in past ..
Pity ...
A regular newsletter would be awesome.
When cass and I published the monthly Nullstreet journal, it took us a combined 30+ man hours for each issue. At the peak, we had something like 25 separate entries. Getting people to write these updates on a regular basis was no easy task.
Not to say that people were not willing - in fact most were happy to tell the world about what they were doing. But nevertheless, I sent out approx 150 personal emails and PMs each month. Just announcing a newsletter was never enough. I would estimate that maybe 1/4 of the entries were from people that were proactive. But more often, I had to send multiple follow-ups before I was able to get the content.
What's more, most entries needed editing as well as proofreading, which was a time consuming process that included sending the draft back to the original author for approval. Then, there was formatting, layout and writing the introduction.
This whole effort was what led me to propose the creation of the DPOSHub platform, which I hoped would cut out the middleman, so to speak. Unfortunately, Jonathan and I discovered after spending about $3k out of pocket, that the vision of DPOSHub would require a significantly larger investment.
Which brings me to an important point - if you want a professional job then it usually takes a lot of hard work and organization. Most people do not do this type of thing without getting paid. I was happy to do this for a few months, I volunteered and I gave it my best effort. I am happy with the results we achieved, and I have no complaints. However, at this stage I am no longer in the position to take on this task as a volunteer.
