I believe that work, no matter how small should be compensated. Is 1 ETH too high for this work, yes for sure. I'd think it worth maybe 0.1-0.2 ETH. However, it's within the right ballpark, so believe it's worth it to signal our willingness to pay for contribution.
had sticker shock at first but 1 eth is OK considering we want to set precedent to encourage others to identify useful things for the DAO, figure out how to do it and presenting it in a prop that's clear. ideas are valuable and should be compensated for.
Initially was against this, but decided to vote Yes because ultimately it's important to send the message that ideas and small tasks are still valuable to the DAO. I think 0.1-0.5 ETH is probably a better range, but I doubt it's going to get reproposed after the other proposal so will still vote yes here.
ideas are valuable and so is execution. pay the man.
i'd like to see more bite-sized improvements like this. and being paid to make them is a good way to invite more.
I hope nobody on Zora or Jacob takes these results personally, they are some of the top builders at Nouns in terms of idea creation and execution
identifying a thing that the dao would actually find very useful + figuring out how to do it + presenting it in a prop that is clear = much more valuable than 1 ETH. we want more of this than less. why not comp on value?
1 ETH is too high, but 0 is too low. Ultimately, this is a valuable proposal.
People seem to be voting against this because there is an alternative proposal with no reward to Jacob. Time and ideas are valuable, and I don't think Nouns DAO wants a reputation for being miserly. Jacob had the idea, spent time figuring out the transaction, and made a clear proposal with a nice graphic. 1 ETH is a reasonable reward.
Not against funding or paying for ideas or proposals. Somewhat against the size of the ask vs the size of the idea here and the proposer setting the price for their idea.
Think we should come up with better mechanisms for doing this though.
brand awareness enabled by this change worth far more than 1 ETH so the reward is warranted
Idk if this sets a weird precedent or whatever but jacob does so much good for this movement I'm happy to give him 1 eth
Love the idea and also think rewarding for cool ideas is positive. But 1eth feels a bit steep. Considering there's another prop to do it as well, it makes sense for the DAO to just vote for the other one.
This was a task that was available to do for over a year, and yet no one did it.
I personally would have preferred to go with less than 1Ξ. But, I like the originality and the precedent this sets. Do a bit of work, ask for a small payment. More people should do it, and the DAO should continue incentivizing it by voting yes.

Vote Reasons & Discussion
vsvsvs | "How had this not already been in place -- my first Hell yess"
Josep | "Amazing idea, Nouns gets lot of transactions and this would be helpfull."
Brook | "the provision of 1 Ξ for suggesting an idea sets an interesting precedent. wonder what it means for upcoming props such as prop 194"
lilpizza.eth | "great idea, but the 1 eth bounty for it seems excessive. I would vote yes without it."
JoelCares | "1 ETH feels excessive here."
pemburux | "I agree with the idea, but for the value of 1 ETH I can't agree with it yet"
andreitr | "Love the simplicity and utility of this proposal but voting against it - I am concerned about the precedent 1ETH compensation sets for the future props."
0xDariush | "I love to see that but agree with you all, 1 Eth make no sense for a simple transaction and I don't call it an idea to be honest.
But I'm wondering why they didn't set the ENS til now anyway
I see foundation.nouns.eth 0x37b8e20646d174b00198b7e183dd1f25520c0f60 owns that ENS at the moment."
kerimbonia | "i'm all for compensating nouns contributors for their time and ideas, but a 1eth tip is a bit exaggerated. if there was some breakdown of time spent working on the prop with reference to how others have been compensated in the past for similar ideas or work, i think the 'tip' could be justified."
JoshuaFisher | "idea is cool but why the extra 1eth fee haha"
Benbodhi | "I like the idea and rewarding ideas but feel like 1 eth for it might be a bit high. Especially considering that a second version of this prop went up without the reward."
Mindtoasted | "The idea is simple but for 1 eth it's kinda hard to agree on this, IMO it just less reasonable"

Voting no on this prop because of the free alternative with proposal 205. This doesn't set a negative precedent since a healthy competitive atmosphere for funding is positive for Nouns and the treasury.
