The opensats decision committee has people on it who sell closed source products and people who come on nostr regularly to shill closed source projects. Even one person who has a well documented history of actively harassing open source devs.
We need to do better as a community if we really want open source to thrive. Start by starving the beast. Donate anywhere else if you care about open source. Ideally donate to a dev directly. You know what you use. Don't let someone else decide who gets your hard earned sats, give them to people who make software you use directly.
It seems like a small thing until you see yet another dev ready to hang it up because of an opensats denial.

quoting nevent1q…7kvrMy OpenSats (nprofile…uazd) application for zap.store (nprofile…tdq0) was rejected.
I don't have any more details.
Again very grateful for the grant I received last year which allowed me to build all this so far.
It's a tough one to swallow, not gonna lie. I will take a few weeks to think about the future of the project.
