Community Survey

How often do you vote? What mostly influences your voting decision? What do you like/dislike about the current treasury process(GOV1 and GOV2)? What are the biggest problems we should help the community resolve in regards to grants applications and transparent funding? Would you like to be able to vote and/or award grants through an Ordum UI or would you prefer to do this via Subsquare / Polkassembly? What would you like to see in the tl;dr / summary section of a proposal? How do we increase relevance of both proposals and voters? Should votes be explained, regardless of their direction? How do you evaluate the credibility of an applicant? What should be displayed on the profile of the Kusama Treasury? Eg. Application process, criteria etc. How do we bring voting closer to the average user and how do we make more token holders aware of the existence of gov2?
