Just went through the entire conversation, so far my biggest takeaway is Mr_Po’s comment about the sample to whom the question is asked being highly biased:
#1 I think is poll is highly non-representative of what UNI token holders think, as it’s sample is heavily skewed towards people who want to actively participate in governance.
A very small % of UNI holders finds themselfes in ‘Governance-meta’ subforum.
However despite this strong bias, the vote still seems to vastly favor rewards for UNI holders, even without participation in governance.
One thing I’m still wondering is whether or not buybacks fall under the definition of “reward” as understood here.
